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

Background: Hidradenitis suppurativa is manifested by painful abscesses and scarring of sweat glands. Axillary, inguinal and genital regions are mostly affected. Multiple options exist in the treatment of hidradenitis suppurativa. The aim of this retrospective, mono-center cohort study was to analyze the outcome of different treatment methods after radical excision of hidradenitis suppurativa. Methods: We retrospectively evaluated the treatment strategy and recurrence rate of hidradenitis suppurativa. We included all eligible patients of legal age between February 2003 and October 2021, with the diagnosis of Hidradenitis suppurativa and the necessity for surgical treatment. All patients with surgical treatment and direct wound closure by suture were excluded. Bacterial load and flora were analyzed for primary and secondary reconstruction in combination with negative-pressure wound therapy. Patient data were analyzed for recurrence rate and remission time according to different reconstructive techniques. Results: In 44 affected anatomical sites ( Conclusion: Radical excision of hidradenitis suppurativa as gold standard for surgical treatment combined with negative-pressure wound therapy as multi-stage procedures ultimately reduced bacterial load and flora in our study.
