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

Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is an autoimmune skin disorder that causes fluid-filled blisters to appear on various body parts, often preceded by urticaria and pruritis. This case report describes the perifollicular melanocyte regeneration within diseased areas in a skin of color patient with BP. By reviewing the various pathologies that can result in melanocyte destruction and the basic science of melanocyte regeneration, we can better identify and explain this phenomenon to patients and lead to earlier diagnoses. Furthermore, due to the lack of published information on skin conditions in skin of color patients, this report can assist in raising awareness of an atypical BP presentation in the dermatological community.
