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

Primary localized cutaneous amyloidosis (PLCA) is characterized by extracellular deposition of pathological fibril aggregation of proteins in the skin without systemic involvement. Macular amyloidosis, lichen (papular) amyloidosis, and nodular amyloidosis are three different subtypes of PLCA. Although the pathological mechanism of PLCA has not yet been clarified, it is assumed that a nucleus formation of amyloid fibril is formed due to repeated external stimulation, such as subcutaneous injection, which often poses diagnostic challenges. Herein, we present a 54-year-old Korean male patient with cutaneous localized amyloidosis which occurred after repeated local insulin injections, and discuss the relationship between insulin therapy in patients with diabetes mellitus and dermal amyloid deposition.
