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

Cyclophosphamide, an alkylating agent, has rarely been observed to cause a bluish discoloration of nails, an occurrence that is typically underreported. We describe the case of a middle-aged male undergoing dexamethasone-cyclophosphamide pulse therapy for pemphigus foliaceus, who exhibited bluish-gray discoloration of the nails. It is crucial to differentiate this presentation from other conditions such as nail apparatus melanoma (NAM), which may manifest in a slightly different manner. We also report the onychoscopic findings observed in this case.
