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

This article reports on the case of a 14-year-old non-binary patient with anorexia nervosa - restrictive subtype (AN-R), presenting with severe malnutrition and the cutaneous manifestations of scurvy. Scurvy is an uncommon nutritional deficiency caused by a lack of dietary vitamin C. In this case, we highlight the clinical features of vitamin C deficiency, a rare but treatable nutritional deficiency that should not be overlooked in patients presenting with malnutrition, including those with eating disorders. This case reviews the pathophysiology, common clinical manifestations, and prevention of vitamin C deficiency and highlights pediatric populations at risk for the development of this condition.
