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

Reactive Infectious Mucocutaneous Eruption is an acute mucocutaneous inflammation secondary to an infection with minimal to absent cutaneous features that has recently been linked to the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-19 (SARS-CoV-19 virus). Unfortunately, the relative rarity of case reports of Reactive Infectious Mucocutaneous Eruption in paediatric populations has led to fewer known successful treatment options with the current mainstay being systemic immunosuppression (e.g. corticosteroids, cyclosporine and etanercept). In this case report, we discuss a case of an adolescent patient with (polymerase chain reaction) PCR+ coronavirus disease 2019 infection and an oral eruption without cutaneous symptoms. He was treated successfully using a single dose of dexamethasone and supportive care through amorphous hydrogel (Intrasite gel), thus providing a safe, cheap and effective treatment option in mild coronavirus disease 2019-associated Reactive Infectious Mucocutaneous Eruption in paediatric patients. We also discuss the current findings, diagnostic terms and treatment options of mucosal manifestations of coronavirus disease 2019 in children.
