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

Background/Purpose: Materials and methods: This scientometric study aimed to investigate and compare research trends and characteristics of syphilis publications by dermatologists and stomatologists in the Scopus database, with emphasis on the analysis of the keywords that can reflect research directions and topics of concern. Results: Among 18,120 papers on syphilis, 1981 (10.9%) and 201 (1.1%) were published by dermatologists and stomatologists, respectively. The total citation count was 18,629 and 2,376 with an Conclusion: In the modern context, both dermatologists and stomatologists play important roles in providing early recognition and timely diagnosis of syphilis, advocating for public health campaigns aimed at increasing awareness, and improving access to care for at-risk patient populations.
