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

backgroundHidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the skin folds, which requires more outpatient treatment alternatives. Although the disease was previously treated using surgery, new treatment modalities now allow the effective treatment of mild and moderate cases in an ambulatory care setting. AIM OF STUDY: Local and instrument-based therapies are presented and their efficacy and safety profiles are highlighted. MATERIALS AND

methodsClinical evidence for each therapeutic modality are presented and current treatment developments are analyzed based on the future treatment of HS patients in Germany.

resultsEffective treatments for outpatient care of HS patients include topical clindamycin, resorcinol, and intralesional corticosteroids. New devices such as LAight therapy (combining intense pulsed light [IPL] with radiofrequency) are available, which can be used as monotherapy or adjunct therapy in combination with systemic treatment and/or surgery for the management of HS.

conclusionEvidence-based use of local treatments can provide more efficient outpatient and self-administered strategies, which improves the quality of life of HS patients, especially for patients with recurrent mild and moderate disease.
