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

The application of biologics such as anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) has shown great efficacy in livedoid vasculopathy (LV). However, new biological options need to be identified for those with a high tuberculosis reactivation risk. In this study, we evaluated the efficacy of anti-17A biologics for LV therapy. Two patients with LV who were irresponsive to traditional anticoagulation therapy were studied at the outpatient dermatology clinic of Peking Union Medical College Hospital. All patients received anti-17A biological therapy for at least two-four weeks. Both patients reported an exacerbation of the skin lesions, which might indicate that the IL-17 pathway plays a critical role in LV pathogenesis.
