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

The prevalence of chronic wounds is increasing with the aging population, with 1% to 2% of the worldwide population experiencing leg ulcers and positive patch tests reported in up to 75% of this population. With the introduction of modern dressings and compression therapies, clinicians should be cognizant of the potential risk of contact dermatitis in patients with leg ulcers. Contact dermatitis (both allergic and irritant) to wound products may present as maceration, pain, and overall impaired wound healing. Herein, we review the literature on contact dermatitis to wound-care products.
