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

Background: The assessment of erythema in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) is based on clinical examination. The difficulty of perceiving erythema in Black patients with AD has led to underestimation of AD severity in these patients. Objective: In this study, we analyzed the concentration of skin tape soluble protein of AD lesions against common AD clinical signs. Method: A total of 50 children with AD were included. Skin tape total soluble protein was extracted from AD lesions and analyzed against validated AD clinical signs, including erythema, excoriation, edema, oozing, and lichenification. Results: Concentration of skin tape soluble protein is positively correlated with acute signs of AD, especially erythema. Conclusion: Determination of concentration of skin tape protein is a potential tool for grading erythema of AD lesions, and it may have an application in improving the health disparity of assessment of eczema severity in Black patients with AD.
