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

Hidradenitis suppurativa/acne inversa (HS) is associated with numerous and relevant restrictions on the quality of life for those affected and their relatives. The exact prevalence of HS varies significantly across studies, but it is likely to be higher than suggested in previous publications. HS care is associated with high costs for the healthcare system and for those affected. The introduction of biologic therapy has led to additional costs, but also to considerable additional benefits in terms of care. In view of the complexity of diagnostics and therapy, there is a particular need for optimized care concepts in order to reduce the burden on those affected, their relatives and the healthcare system.
