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

backgroundChronic eczema significantly impacts daily life, social interactions, and quality of life; however, no curative treatment has been identified.

aimTo determine the clinical efficacy of acupoint injection for chronic eczema and its influence on peripheral blood T cells.

methodsEighty patients with chronic eczema treated at our hospital between June 2022 and March 2023 were randomly assigned to a control group (

resultsNo difference in overall response rates were found between the observation and control groups (100%

conclusionAcupoint injection of triamcinolone acetonide is safe and effective in treating chronic eczema. Its therapeutic mechanism is related to the regulation of peripheral blood T cell levels, inhibition of inflammatory reactions, and mitigation of immune imbalance.
