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

We report the case of a patient with chronic granulomatous disease and acne treated with isotretinoin, who developed a diffuse staphylococcal skin infection during the therapy. Chronic granulomatous disease is a rare genetic disorder characterized by an altered innate immunity with an increased risk of potentially lethal bacterial and fungal infections. Although chronic granulomatous disease is rare, acne is a common manifestation in these patients, but there are no data about the gold standard therapy.
