Nail Loss in Mild to Moderate Pemphigus Vulgaris.
Article in Skin appendage disorders, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Introduction: Symptoms of pemphigus vulgaris (PV) rarely include nail findings. When ungual involvement does occur, the most common manifestations are paronychia and onychomadesis. Onycholysis is very uncommon, and complete nail loss has not been reported in the literature. Ungual involvement is thought to be closely correlated with disease severity, with only severe PV cases demonstrating nail symptoms. Case Presentation: We report a case of a 34-year-old female presenting with mild to moderate PV yet severe onycholysis of her first toe leading to secondary nail loss in conjunction with paronychia of her bilateral thumbs. Oral tofacitinib and rituximab infusions led to strikingly rapid improvement in her nail symptoms. Discussion/Conclusion: This case illustrates the importance of a thorough history and physical exam, as a primary complaint of nail symptoms in these patients may lead to unrecognized PV by even the most skilled practitioners. Tofacitinib and rituximab in combination may rapidly improve nail involvement.
