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

Background: A retronychia classification system is overdue considering the most recent publications. Using the keyword "retronychia", publications with a narrative literature review were selected from PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE and Google Scholar, adding a few select papers. Summary: This article proposes a theoretical pathophysiological basis for retronychia. Several factors alter the clinical picture of retronychia: length and periodicity of backward displacement, duration of disease, intensity of paronychia, presence and type of nail stacking (polymeronychia), and remodeling of the nail apparatus (elevation of the proximal nail, nail bed shortening, retroversion of the distal nail fold and acquired malalignment). Key Messages: With these factors in mind, we propose a new classification system for retronychia: A standing for acute, O for ongoing, and C for chronic. We believe this easy system may increase the diagnostic acuity for the disease and its understanding.
