Achenbach's hand and digital paroxysmal haematomas: a possible association with joint hypermobility syndrome in two sibling cases.
Article in JRSM open, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
A pair of middle-aged sisters is presented who experienced episodes of spontaneous, relatively atraumatic, acute onset, painful sub-cutaneous bleeding into the digits of their hands over a number of preceding years. A literature search revealed they had Achenbach's syndrome, which is a benign and self-limiting condition that resolves completely within 2-4 days. However, a hitherto unreported association between Achenbach's syndrome and joint hypermobility with its abnormal collagen is made, along with a tentative causality hypothesis that perhaps in the presence of atypical connective tissue, the architecture and integrity of the peripheral capillary bed of the hand could be adversely affected and therefore predispose towards paroxysmal palm and/or finger bleeds.
