1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

We report a 64-year-old man presenting with cutaneous leukocytoclastic vasculitis, the underlying etiology of which was established as hepatitis C infection with associated cryoglobulinemia. This pathophysiologic state presented clinically as recurrent cutaneous vasculitic eruptions with the absence of any other clinical manifestations except for mild ankle swelling and weakness. This case clearly relates the need to consider hepatitis C as a potential etiologic factor in all patients with cutaneous vasculitis, and we suggest that viral hepatitis screening should be done routinely in all patients presenting with cutaneous vasculitis.
