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
introductionHidradenitis suppurativa is a disease with a decisive burden on sufferers, both physical and psychological. It was expected that the more intense the severity of symptoms the patients experienced, the greater the correlation with the psychosomatic manifestations would be.
objectivesThe present study aimed to explore the correlation between hidradenitis suppurativa and the psychosomatic burden, the personality, and the demographic characteristics of the participants.
methodsThe participants were 90 outpatients of the hospital, aged 18 to 65, who had been diagnosed with hidradenitis and were sufficiently proficient in Greek. The psychometric instruments administered were the Symptom Checklist-90 (SCL90), the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ), the short-form McGill Pain Questionnaire (SF-MPQ), the Hurley and refined Hurley classifications, the International Hidradenitis Suppurativa Severity Scoring System (IHS4), and a short demographic questionnaire. All statistical analyses were performed using the SPSS-28 statistical package.
resultsAccording to statistical analyses, there was no statistically significant relationship between disease severity, psychosomatic burden, and personality. However, there were statistically significant associations with demographic factors, such as being female or not being in a relationship, the patient's body mass index, the locus of the skin lesion, a history of hospitalization, comorbidities, psychiatric history, and pain with psychopathological manifestations and personality.
conclusionsIt is important that further research be conducted that will include more mental disorders besides anxiety and depression while at the same time excluding confounding factors for safer interpretation of the results.
