Associations Between Stevens-Johnson Syndrome and Infection: Overview of Pharmacoepidemiological Studies.
Review in Frontiers in medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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.
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
Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis (SJS/TEN) are classified as type B adverse drug reactions, and are severe, potentially fatal rare disorders. However, the pathogenesis of SJS/TEN is not fully understood. The onset of SJS/TEN is triggered by the immune system in response to antigens with or by drugs. As activation of the immune system is important, infection could be a risk factor for the onset of SJS/TEN. Based on the hypothesis that infections induce the onset of SJS/TEN, we conducted pharmacoepidemiological investigations using two spontaneous adverse drug reaction reporting databases (Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report database and Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System) and Japanese medical information database. These data suggest that infection could be a risk factor for the development of SJS/TEN. In this mini-review, we discuss the association between infection and the development of SJS/TEN.
