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

A 51-year-old man with dilated cardiomyopathy was resuscitated from ventricular fibrillation. Twenty-days after using a wearable cardioverter-defibrillator (WCD) contact dermatitis with itching was evident and consistent with the self-gelling defibrillation electrodes patch on the back. Itching was controlled with clobetasol propionate application. The WCD was continued until catheter ablation and device implantation. The contact dermatitis was completely recovered two weeks after discontinuing the WCD. Among 58 patients using the WCD, three (5.2%) complained about discomfort with the device, and two (3.4%) complained of itching. Only the patient presented here (1.7%) suffered from contact dermatitis with itching. Contact dermatitis is rarely observed in patients wearing a WCD but physicians should be aware of this complication to maintain WCD compliance. <
