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

Dupilumab is a monoclonal antibody that is used for the treatment of atopic dermatitis (AD) in adults. However, increasing reports of ocular complications including conjunctivitis and dry eye disease have been documented. In this report, we describe a case of a patient who developed limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD) after prolonged Dupilumab use. A 56-year-old Caucasian male with a history of AD presented with gradual onset cloudy vision and extensive diffuse symblepharon resulting from Dupilumab treatment. He was diagnosed with cicatrizing blepharoconjunctivitis and secondary LSCD after slit lamp examination. In conclusion, LSCD secondary to cicatricial disease is a severe adverse ocular complication caused from long-term Dupilumab treatment.
