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

Galli-Galli disease (GGD) is a rare genodermatosis that is an acantholytic variant of Dowling-Degos disease that presents as lentigo-like macules/papules with progressive reticulated hyperpigmentation. Heat, sweat, ultraviolet light exposure, and topical retinoids have been reported to exacerbate the lesions associated with GGD. Here, we present a 77-year-old woman with end-stage renal disease and GGD who reported a worsening of lesions during the summer months and following hemodialysis treatment. Despite the severity of her lesions following dialysis, she refused treatment with isotretinoin out of concern for its side effect profile. In this case report, we discuss some available treatment options for GGD and review the exacerbating factors for GGD currently reported in the literature.
