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

Actinic prurigo (AP) is an uncommon photodermatosis. In European and Native American populations, AP is more common in young women and demonstrates clinical improvement or remission in adulthood. The clinical signs of AP differ in Asians because the disorder typically occurs in adults (adult-onset AP) and is clinically persistent. The objective of this study was to investigate the characteristics and outcomes of patients with AP in Thailand. A total of 15 cases with AP were evaluated. All of them were adult-onset AP (mean onset age of 45.5 years). Males predominated (66.7%). The majority of them manifested with papules on the face and upper extremities. Mucositis was present in 2 patients. Phototesting revealed that the minimal erythematous dose (MED) for UVA decreased in 3 subjects and the MED for both UVA and UVB decreased in other 3 patients. A photo-provocation test was performed on 9 patients with normal MED, and 5 of them showed positive UVA photo-provocation, while 4 showed positive UVA and UVB photop-rovocation. A systemic immunosuppressant was prescribed in 60% of patients. Median time for clinical improvement was 8.6 months. Complete clinical remission was found in only 3 patients. Adult-onset AP has different clinical features and responds differently to treatment, compared to classical AP.
