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

backgroundSubacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus (SCLE) manifests with erythematous, nonscarring, annular, or papulosquamous plaques. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are increasingly being incriminated in its causation, but reports of similar nature from India are lacking.

aimsTo describe the characteristics of seven patients with SCLE induced by PPIs and to review the published cases in order to provide a better perspective of the association. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe describe seven patients of PPI-induced SCLE, seen over a period of 6 years. We also review the literature for additional data on PPI-induced SCLE. The selected publications were reviewed, and relevant clinical and laboratory data were extracted.

resultsOf the total seven cases, there were four males and three females with a mean age of 60.2 ± 5.5 years (range 53-70 years). Nine episodes of PPI-induced SCLE were recorded in the seven patients. Of the initial episodes, esomeprazole was implicated in four, pantoprazole in two, and rabeprazole in one patient. Latency period ranged from 2 weeks to 1 year (mean 11.4 ± 16.2 weeks). Morphology was described as annular scaly plaques in six and papulosquamous in one. Antinuclear antibodies and anti-Ro antibodies were positive in all patients. Naranjo probability scale was used in all patients; two were categorized as definite and five as probable. Treatments included drug withdrawal in six patients, topical steroids in one, systemic corticosteroids in all seven, and hydroxychloroquine in one patient, used alone or in combinations. Complete remission was achieved in six cases, while one had partial remission. LIMITATION: Retrospective nature of this study and limited number of patients.

conclusionPPIs can trigger SCLE.
