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

Trigeminal trophic syndrome (TTS) is a rare disease that occurs after injury to the trigeminal nerve. Though this condition has been reported in the early 20th century, it is still a rare entity, with only around 200 cases reported so far. It characteristically presents with persistent facial ulceration with loss of sensation and paraesthesia along the distribution of the trigeminal nerve. We here report a case of TTS developing as a complication of herpes zoster, which possibly occurred due to the nerve damage caused by varicella-zoster virus.
