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

Aquagenic keratoderma, also known as aquagenic wrinkling of the palms, transient reactive papulotranslucent acrokeratoderma, or transient aquagenic hyper-wrinkling, is an uncommon disorder that affects the palms and occasionally the soles. It presents with translucent whitish to yellowish papules and increased wrinkling upon water exposure. The frequency of this condition is yet to be determined among the general population. However, it is frequently observed in patients among patients with cystic fibrosis or carriers of the cystic fibrosis gene, with frequency estimated to be up to 41%. In this paper, we report the utility and novelty of Wood's light as a bedside adjunct tool to aid in diagnosing aquagenic keratoderma. To our knowledge, this is the first case reporting the use of Wood's light in diagnosing aquagenic keratoderma.
