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

Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is an autoimmune mucocutaneous disorder of the oral cavity and is the most common subtype of pemphigus. The etiology remains obscure, although the disease is characterized by autoantibodies directed against the desmoglein component of the keratinocytes. It manifests clinically as vesicle, bullae or erosions of skin and mucous membrane and histopathologically shows the presence of acantholysis. The presence of exclusive oral lesions initially increases the chances of misdiagnosing the disease as another condition, posing diagnostic, therapeutic and prognostic difficulties, consequently prompt diagnosis and treatment can prevent untoward consequences. Demonstration of IgG antibodies against desmoglein in Immunofluroscence confirms the diagnosis. In here we report a case of a 55-year-old female patient suffering from PV emphasizing the significance of clinical examination, pertinent investigations, treatment rendered and its outcome.
