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
Key Clinical Message: IgA pemphigus is usually treated by Dapsone. Recalcitrant cases may be treated by Colchicine, Sulfapyridine, or Acitretin. Some patients with recurrent severe disease may not respond to the aforementioned medications. Our study highlights the role of TNFa inhibitor as an alternative modality in the treatment of recalcitrant IgA pemphigus. Abstract: IgA pemphigus is a rare autoimmune blistering disease characterized by a pruritic, annular, vesiculopustular eruption. In IgA pemphigus, there are IgA autoantibodies targeting the keratinocyte cell surface adhesion molecules, causing cell-to-cell dehiscence and a flaccid vesiculopustular eruption, mainly in the axilla and groin. Dapsone, despite being the drug of choice for treating IgA pemphigus, is not effective in clearing lesions in a minority of patients and such rare cases of recalcitrant IgA pemphigus need alternative modalities of treatment. Here, we report the successful treatment of a 50-year-old male patient with an adalimumab injection who had a poor response to dapsone.
