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

Background: An adverse cutaneous drug reaction (ACDR) is an undesirable change in structure and function of the skin, its appendages, or mucous membranes due to drugs. Aims and Objectives: To study the demographic details, clinical patterns, mucocutaneous involvement, causality, and the offending drugs causing ACDR. Materials and Methods: In this observational study, we have seen 2,96,544 patients in the skin department at a rural-based tertiary health-care hospital, out of which 728 cases were diagnosed to have ACDR from a time span of April 2010 to March 2021. The causality assessment system WHO-UMC (World Health Organization Collaborating Centre for International Drug Monitoring, the Uppsala Monitoring Centre), the Naranjo probability scale, and Hartwigs score were calculated for patients. Results: Out of 728 cases, males were 371 (50.96%); most common age group was 21-30 years (25.13%). The most common presenting complaint was erythematous rash (21.29%). Antimicrobials ( Conclusion: Wide spectrum of drug reactions were observed in this study. Antimicrobials were the most common causative agents of ACDR.
