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

Cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE) may occur in association with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) or independently of SLE. Among the various subtypes of CLE, acute cutaneous lupus erythematosus (ACLE) has the highest rate of occurrence in association with SLE rather than independently; thus, if a patient presents with ACLE, a workup for SLE should be performed if not already diagnosed. In this case, we present a 52-year-old female with a past medical history consistent with a diagnosis of SLE (including end-stage renal disease, antiphospholipid syndrome, and seizure disorder); however, the patient went undiagnosed for years. Thus, when she presented with an unusual presentation of ACLE, the diagnosis was initially overlooked.
