Scleredema Adultorum of Buschke Associated With Diffuse Eosinophilia and Hepatitis B Virus Infection.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Scleredema adultorum of Buschke is a rare condition that presents as a scleroderma mimic and portends a diagnostic challenge to the clinician. It may be associated with monoclonal gammopathy, upper respiratory tract infection, or type II diabetes mellitus. In addition, it is associated with dermal collagen and aminoglycan deposits that cause the skin to thicken and stiffen. Typically, thickening and tightening begin in the neck and progress to the upper body, including the face, scalp, shoulders, and trunk, but sparing the palms and soles. Patients with minor skin involvement may not suffer any symptoms, whereas those with significant skin disease may develop stiffness and functional impairment. There are rare reports linking scleredema adultorum of Buschke with several infections such as human immunodeficiency virus infection, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome-related lipodystrophy syndrome, and streptococcal infection of the upper respiratory tract. Here, we present a case of scleredema adultorum of Buschke associated with hepatitis B infection.
