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

Chronic acral hyperkeratotic dermatosis includes several conditions such as lichen simplex chronicus (LSC), hypertrophic lichen planus (HLP), psoriasis vulgaris (Ps), acral acanthosis nigricans, acquired zinc deficiency, and necrolytic acral erythema (NAE). LSC, Ps, and HLP respond to conventional treatments such as topical corticosteroids, immuno-modulators such as tacrolimus, and oral methotrexate. Zinc-responsive acral hyperkeratosis is a novel entity that resembles the above mentioned diagnoses clinically but fails to respond to the above treatment options. NAE is a rare condition, commonly associated with hepatitis C virus infection and manifest similar clinical features of zinc-responsive acral hyperkeratosis, but differs histopathologically. Both conditions show a good response to oral zinc supplementation. As there is a paucity of literature on zinc-responsive acral hyperkeratosis, we are highlighting the case.
