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

backgroundBehçet's disease is a potentially fatal vasculitis disorder involving vessels in both the arterial and venous systems. Cutaneous manifestation is the most common sign in Behçet's disease, but its relation to disease activity and prognosis is lacking.

objectiveOur study aims to determine the relationship between cutaneous, extracutaneous manifestations with Behçet's disease activity, morbidity, and mortality. MATERIALS AND

methodsPatients diagnosed with Behçet's disease were identified by using the 1990 International Study Group for Behçet's disease criteria and/or the 2014 international criteria for Behçet's disease. Data regarding patients' clinical manifestations, laboratory results, disease activity, and prognosis were retrieved and analyzed. Disease activity was evaluated using the 2006 Behçet's disease current activity form (BDCAF).

resultsOf 119 patients, the mean age at diagnosis was 35.7 ± 10.7 years and 60% were female. Median disease duration was 96 months (IQR 48-168). Minor oral ulcer at the buccal mucosa was associated with lower median BDCAF score (

conclusionOur study suggests that different locations of minor oral ulcers help predict disease activity. Male gender and the presence of ocular manifestations resulted in less favorable outcomes for Behçet's disease.
