A Severe Case of Overlap of Morphea and Eosinophilic Fasciitis after Burn Injuries.
Article in Case reports in rheumatology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Background: Generalized morphea is a rare fibrosing skin illness that progresses from erythematous, violet-colored skin patches to sclerotic plaques. Another uncommon immune-mediated connective tissue disease called eosinophilic fasciitis (EF) evolves to cause sclerosis and woody skin induration. The coexistence of the two is extremely rare and has a poorer prognosis. Our case report is one of the first to report burn injuries as a trigger factor for EF and generalized morphea overlap. Conclusion: Generalized morphea with concomitant EF indicates some degree of therapeutic resistance and poor prognosis with a low quality of life. Burn injuries can be a trigger factor for this overlap syndrome. Prompt identification of at-risk individuals and initiating aggressive management are necessary.
