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

Pyogenic granuloma is a common benign, vascular lesion of the skin and mucosa. Our case was a 34-year-old woman at 28 weeks of gestation. She presented with a complaint of a growing and occasionally bleeding mass on the left lower eyelid conjunctiva for approximately 3 months. On examination, a red, pedunculated fragile lesion on the medial lower eyelid conjunctiva was observed. Ophthalmologic examination revealed that visual acuity was 20/20 in both eyes. Anterior and posterior segment examination was normal bilaterally. The lesion was excised completely under local anesthesia and sent for pathological examination. Histopathological examination revealed multiple vascular structures with small-diameters in the fibrous stroma. Vessels showed strong CD31 expression in immunohistochemical staining. Kaposi sarcoma was excluded due to negative HHV-8 staining. These findings were diagnostic of pyogenic granuloma. The frequency of pyogenic granuloma increases during pregnancy and surgical excision is important in diagnosis and treatment of these patients. This is the first reported case of conjunctival pyogenic granuloma during pregnancy.
