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

Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) is a life-threatening acute mucocutaneous syndrome. It is characterized by keratinocyte necrosis and apoptosis, which affect more than 30% of the body's surface. TEN is most commonly due to an altered immunological response to specific drugs, infections, and malignancies, or it can be idiopathic. The combination of TEN and COVID-19 can have a fatal outcome if not recognized and promptly treated. Therefore, fast reporting of such cases will draw doctors' attention to quick and right intervention. In this article, we present a 66-year-old patient with a clinical presentation of toxic epidermal necrolysis along with a coexisting COVID-19 infection. To our knowledge, this is the first case of TEN in a patient diagnosed with SARS CoV-2 infection in Saudi Arabia.
