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

Vitiligo is a cutaneous condition that causes loss of pigmentation; it can be associated with other autoimmune conditions. Sjogren's syndrome is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune condition that classically presents with xerophthalmia and xerostomia. Rarely, vitiligo has occurred in individuals with Sjogren's syndrome. A 51-year-old Hispanic woman presented with vitiligo. Her laboratory investigation was consistent with Sjogren's syndrome; she subsequentially developed xerophthalmia and arthritis. The association between vitiligo and other autoimmune conditions is reviewed and the association of vitiligo and Sjogren's syndrome is discussed.
