Hurley Staging Training for Hidradenitis Suppurativa Patients.
Article in Skin appendage disorders, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Introduction: The Hurley staging system is a grading system utilized to measure hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) severity. Teaching patients to grade the severity of HS may aid in the accuracy of self-reporting for research and clinical purposes. Thus, this study aimed to determine the utility of a Hurley stage learning module (HSLM) for participants to grade images of HS. Methods: An anonymous survey was distributed online between October 2021 and January 2022. Participants completed a 5-min HSLM and a 9-item Hurley staging quiz with varying Fitzpatrick skin tones and HS severity. Comparative statistics were completed using Results: Majority of participants were female (95.2%, 263/276) and white (81.5%, 225/276). In terms of the percentage of quiz questions correct: 77.9% of respondents graded the Hurley stage 1 images correctly, 79.3% for Hurley stage 2, and 100% for Hurley stage 3. There was a significant difference in confidence of rating Hurley stage for any image (3.66 ± 1.18 vs. 4.39 ± 0.83; Conclusion: An HSLM provides high level of accuracy and increased participant confidence to grade their own disease and images of HS. An HSLM is an effective, cost-efficient, and valuable tool to facilitate clinical and survey research by allowing patients to report disease severity with increased confidence.
