Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis Syndrome: Management And Outcomes.
Article in Annals of burns and fire disasters, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Toxic epidermal necrolysis syndrome (TENS) is a rare medical emergency associated with high morbidity and mortality. At present, there is no agreement regarding specific treatments for this disease. The aim of this study is to determine the outcome of patients with TENS using a treatment protocol that did not include the use of intravenous immunoglobulin or systemic steroids. This is a retrospective study of all patients diagnosed with TENS admitted to a tertiary burns centre from 2015-2017. Twelve cases were identified with a mean age of 46±8 years. Mean total body surface area affected was 51±9%. The SCORTEN index was 3.4±0.3 (range 2-5) and predicted 3 deaths in this cohort. Overall mortality was 25%. This study casts no doubt on the prognostic validity of SCORTEN. No specific TENS treatment has been unequivocally proven to be effective.
