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

Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic, inflammatory, recurrent skin disorder of the hair follicle. Trauma, mechanical pressure, or friction could have an important role in the pathogenesis of HS. We present a patient with HS who developed new HS lesions shortly after a cesarean section, which could be explained by the Koebner phenomenon. Koebnerization in HS has recently been observed in patients in whom new lesions developed at an ectopic location free from apocrine glands as a result of trauma. More studies need to be conducted to shed light on the possible relation between HS and surgical trauma. Avoidance of external trauma could be included in general measures of HS treatment.
