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

Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a rare ulcerative skin condition. Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) and Behçet's disease (BD) are autoinflammatory disorders common in Mediterranean populations. The coexistence of FMF and BD is unusual, and the presence of PG alongside both is even rarer. We present a case of a 51-year-old male diagnosed with both BD and FMF who developed PG during treatment. His PG lesion was managed with a tailored regimen that included topical hydrocortisone acetate with fusidic acid, colchicine, topical tacrolimus, oral prednisone, and intravenous infliximab, which led to the successful healing of the PG lesion. This case underscores the need for specialized approaches to manage overlapping autoinflammatory conditions.
