A case of toxic epidermal necrolysis comorbid with severe burns.

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.
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
Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) and severe burns both have high mortality rates, but coexistence is extremely rare. The specificity of developing TEN in burn patients is not well understood and its treatment strategy is not established. Case Presentation: A 68-year-old man was carried to our hospital with severe burns covering 35% of his body surface area. He developed bacteremia during treatment of burns and required antimicrobial therapy. However, erythema appeared on the trunk and upper limbs and rapidly spread to the extremities, leading to a diagnosis of TEN. The rash gradually improved after terminating antimicrobial therapy and administrating of 1,000 mg/day methylprednisolone for 3 days. The rash caused by TEN was confined to non-burned areas, suggesting that TEN may less likely occur at burn sites. Conclusion: It is necessary to pay attention because burn patients can develop TEN concomitantly. Corticosteroids therapy may be effective for TEN even in severe burn patients.
