Synovitis, Acne, Pustulosis, Hyperostosis, and Osteitis Syndrome Diagnosis in Adolescent and Isotretinoin as a Possible Serious Exacerbating Factor.

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
Synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, and osteitis (SAPHO) syndrome is a rare auto-inflammatory condition involving cutaneous and osteoarticular manifestations. This study presents a case where a 16-year-old male with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency presented with severe nodulocystic acne after three weeks of isotretinoin therapy. In addition to worsening acne, the patient had bone and joint pain with movement restriction. The patient's workup showed elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP), bilateral symmetrical sacroiliitis on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and multiple bony lesions on bone scintigraphy. A diagnosis of SAPHO syndrome possibly induced by isotretinoin was made. Isotretinoin discontinuation, analgesia, topical acne medications, prednisolone, and adalimumab yielded considerable clinical improvement.
