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

Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is an autoimmune blistering disease affecting the skin and mucosa. It clinically presents as painful erosions, mainly in the oral cavity, and flaccid blisters and erosions on the skin. Steven-Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis (SJS/TEN) is a severe mucocutaneous drug hypersensitivity reaction characterized by painful, dusky, erythematous eruptions that often progress to blisters, erosions, and extensive epidermal detachment accompanied by systemic symptoms. Herein, we report the case of a 48-year-old man who presented with extensive skin and mucosal lesions following the ingestion of an unknown medication. The patient's symptoms clinically mimicked SJS, and accordingly, a preliminary diagnosis of SJS/TEN was made. However, clinical investigation of skin biopsy and direct immunofluorescence assay results indicated PV, and a final diagnosis of PV was established.
