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

Minocycline-induced pigmentation is a rare dermatological condition that primarily affects the skin and thyroid gland, oral mucosa, nails, teeth, bones, and sclera leading to grayish-blue pigmentation in these areas. Early identification, discontinuation of the drug, and laser treatment are crucial in managing this condition. We reported a case involving a 72-year-old Chinese woman who developed diffuse blue-brown pigmentation after 1 year of minocycline treatment for pemphigus vulgaris. Histological examination revealed multiple pigment-laden macrophages and free pigment in the dermis at the skin lesions. According to our review of the literatures, the generalized skin involvement made our case very rare in comparison with those previously reported of Chinese patients.
