Erythroderma with total scarring alopecia.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
A woman in her 50s presented with total scarring ulcerated alopecia evolving for 10 years, and a recent budding tumour on the lower lip. Clinical examination revealed an associated exfoliated and infiltrated erythroderma with ulcerated cutaneous tumours of the legs, palmoplantar hyperkeratosis, hepatosplenomegaly and diffuse lymphadenopathies.Dermatoscopy of the scalp, leg tumours and infiltrated skin showed a typical yellowish background overlaid by arborescent vessels and whitish areas. Cutaneous biopsies of the same areas found sarcoidotic granulomas. Lip biopsy found an associated well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma. Investigations confirmed the diagnosis of systemic sarcoidosis with an elevated converting enzyme level, mediastinal calcified lymphadenopathies in CT scan and deep localisations in positron emission tomography scan (thyroid, lymph nodes, mediastinum, liver, spleen and adrenal glands).The patient was treated with oral prednisone for sarcoidosis and intramuscular bleomycin followed by surgery and radiotherapy for squamous cell carcinoma. Sarcoidotic lesions healed, but a recurrence of her carcinoma led to death.
