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

Vasculitides, characterized by inflammation and damage of blood vessels, encompass a broad spectrum of diseases. They can occur with different pathophysiological mechanisms and have a rich clinical heterogeneity depending on the vessel diameters they affect. Vasculitides may also present with a broad spectrum of severity, ranging from a mild self-limiting to a potentially life-threatening disease. The high prevalence of skin involvement in vasculitis, visible character and, finally, the easy accessibility of the skin for both physical examination and biopsy offers important advantages for prompt disease recognition and diagnosis. Thus, dermatologists are privileged to diagnose the disease earlier and more effectively than any other discipline. As a consequence, a detailed clinical and histopathological evaluation of the skin is one of the most critical steps in diagnosing vasculitis. Besides obtaining a good medical history, laboratory and radiological evaluation methods are used in the diagnosis. In this review, a practical and algorithmic approach is aimed to assist in the diagnosis of vasculitis. However, this approach should not be seen as strict rules. This stepwise algorithmic diagnostic approach for vasculitis was developed by combining the current literature knowledge and the author's experience in this field to provide a rational framework for selecting the most appropriate among various diagnostic approaches.
