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

Introduction: Onychopapilloma most commonly presents as longitudinal erythronychia, but diagnosis may be challenging in some cases due to varied clinical presentations. Most patients with onychopapillomas do not report associated pain but instead more commonly report functional interference. Case Report: We present a case of a 74-year-old female with a 5-year history of splitting and lifting of the right thumbnail, accompanied by nail sensitivity and intermittent painful throbbing. Clinical examination was significant for a less than 1 mm red line with distal onycholysis. Love's test and a cold test performed with ice pack were negative. X-ray of the right thumb was negative for erosion or exostosis. Nail biopsy was performed, and dermatopathology was consistent with onychopapilloma with a concomitant traumatic neuroma. Conclusion: We report a case of onychopapilloma with a concomitant traumatic neuroma. Subungual neuromas are extremely rare and have not previously been associated with onychopapilloma. Our case supports the expansion of the differential diagnosis for a painful nail and demonstrates the importance of diagnostic confirmation with biopsy and histopathology.
