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

backgroundDermatology encompasses the management of many disorders of the skin and cutaneous appendages, making the analysis of epidemiological profiles relevant for health planning.

objectiveThe study aims to describe the nosological profile of dermatological diseases in Florianopolis, analyzing the interrelation among the primary health care and dermatology services, from January 2016 to December 2017.

methodDescriptive study from records of medical visits from the primary health care and dermatology services, as well as records of reports issued by the teledermatology service.

resultsIn primary health care, from 55,265 medical visits - 28,546 in 2016 and 26,719 in 2017, there was a higher prevalence of "Atopic dermatitis" (6.38%), "other disorders of skin and subcutaneous tissue" (5.10%), and "Scabies" (4.55%). In dermatology secondary care, from 19,964 visits - 10,068 in 2016 and 9626 in 2017, the most prevalent diagnoses were "Other malignant neoplasms of the skin" (14.75%) and "Skin changes due to chronic exposure to nonionizing radiation" (10.20%). STUDY LIMITATIONS: Some dermatological consultations in primary health care may have been under-registered due to the attribution of non-specific or overly broad diagnoses.

conclusionThis study presents different nosological profiles of skin diseases in primary health care and dermatology secondary care, reinforcing the importance of primary health care's role in the management of less complex conditions, referring more complex cases that require more specialized experience to dermatology services..
