Necrotizing Sweet Syndrome of the Hand and Forearm in the Immediate Postoperative Period: Case Report.
Article in Hand (New York, N.Y.), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Necrotizing soft tissue infection (NSTI) is a feared and potentially morbid postoperative complication requiring prompt surgical intervention. Cutaneous conditions that mimic NSTI have been reported and rarely occur in the postoperative period. Sweet syndrome, also known as acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis, is a dermatologic condition characterized by fever, neutrophil-predominant leukocytosis, and painful skin lesions. Necrotizing Sweet syndrome (NSS) is an aggressive variant that causes a clinical appearance of localized skin necrosis and histologic evidence of necrotic foci extending to the deep aspects of the soft tissues and involving fascia and/or skeletal muscle. Necrotizing Sweet syndrome can be easily mistaken for NSTI. Contrary to infection, Sweet syndrome and NSS are worsened by surgical intervention due to the phenomenon of pathergy and readily respond to corticosteroid treatment. We present the case of a 54-year-old woman who developed NSS following an uncomplicated fasciectomy for Dupuytren disease.
