Coexistence of malignancies in pemphigus vulgaris.
Article in Immunologic research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is a rare autoimmune intraepidermal bullous disease. PV has a major effect on morbidity as well as quality of life. There is sparse literature regarding the association between pemphigus vulgaris (PV) and comorbid malignancies. In this study we aimed to assess the risk of malignancy in a cohort of patients with PV and characterize PV-associated malignancies. Data were collected from two tertiary referral centers between the years 2008 and 2019 and compared with the national cancer registry. Of 164 patients with PV, 19 were diagnosed with malignancy: seven prior to PV diagnosis and 12 after. All cancers, solid and hematological, displayed higher incidences compared to the general population (p <0.001). In conclusion, we demonstrated higher rates of malignancies among patients with PV than in the general population. These observations suggest the need for careful assessment and follow up of patients with PV, given the possibility of associated malignancies.
