Treatment of scleredema adultorum of Buschke with intravenous immunoglobulin and mycophenolate mofetil in a 14-year-old girl: a case report.
Article in Journal of medical case reports, 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
backgroundScleredema adultorum of Buschke is a rare disease characterized by firm and non-pitting edema of the skin. The condition is rare with unknown etiology. Diagnosis is made on the basis of clinical findings and skin biopsy. CASE PRESENTATION: Here, we describe a 14-year-old Iranian girl presenting with non-pitting edema and woody thickening of the skin that progressed within a month. She was evaluated for possible underlying malignancy or connective tissue disorders, which were excluded by multiple laboratory workups. She underwent a skin biopsy which confirmed the diagnosis of scleredema, and she was successfully treated with intravenous immunoglobulin and mycophenolate mofetil.
conclusionWhile scleredema adultorum of Buschke is a rare disease with no definite treatment, our effort through this report was to highlight the possible benefits of treatment by intravenous immunoglobulin and mycophenolate mofetil.
