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

Introduction: Nearly all epidemiologic studies have involved patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Few authors have investigated the characteristics of patients with cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE). Aim: To describe the clinical and pathologic characteristics of a series of patients diagnosed with CLE. Material and methods: This is a descriptive retrospective cross-sectional study carried out using the consecutive registered records of 218 patients attending the 'Lupus Clinic' in Chittagong Medical College Hospital during the period between 2010 and 2020. The activity and damage of CLE were assessed according to the Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus Disease Area and Severity Index (CLASI). Results: There were 187 (85.8%) females and 31 (14.2%) males, with the female:male ratio being 6 : 1. The mean age was 30.0 ±11.7 years. The chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CCLE) patients numbered 154 (70.6%), followed by acute cutaneous lupus erythematosus (ACLE) Conclusions: CCLE was the most common subtypes of CLE. Photosensitivity was the most common clinical manifestation, whereas ANA were the most frequent autoantibodies of the LE patients of this region. Patients with different subtypes of CLE have distinct clinical and pathological characteristics.
