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

Epidermodysplasia verruciformis (EV) is an uncommon disease that is inherited autosomal recessively. It has a heightened vulnerability to human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, which manifests as hyperpigmented or hypopigmented macular lesions, lesions resembling pityriasis versicolor (PV) and planar warts, and an increased risk of progressing to skin cancer, especially in sun-exposed areas. We report three cases of EV with varying presentations. One patient, a long-standing case of EV, developed squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in the vulva and inguinal region. Another patient had a rare association with palmar pits, while the third patient presented with classical EV. All our patients were prescribed oral retinoids and advised to practice stringent photoprotection after histopathology confirmed evidence of EV.
