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

A 67-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital because of a complete right bundle branch block. She had been treated with minocycline for skin sarcoidosis and her symptoms had ameliorated four years previously. Gallium scintigraphy revealed an abnormal uptake in the heart but not in the skin or lungs. She was diagnosed with cardiac sarcoidosis, although an endomyocardial biopsy could not detect any sarcoid lesions. Immunohistochemical staining for Cutibacterium acnes was positive for granulomas of the skin lesions which had been previously biopsied. One year after starting the administration of steroids, her condition improved.
