Unilateral Eosinophilic Fasciitis With Hand Involvement: A Case Report.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Eosinophilic fasciitis (EF) is a rare systemic connective tissue disease involving chronic inflammation of muscle fascia and subcutaneous tissue. While the underlying pathogenesis is poorly understood, prior publications have described classic findings to support this unusual diagnosis through clinical presentation, imaging, and histology. We report a unique case of eosinophilic fasciitis in a 24-year-old male with a predominantly asymmetric presentation and related hand involvement. Key features of the physical exam, labs and MRI imaging led to the diagnosis, and the patient improved with steroids and eventually transitioned to steroid sparing therapy. This case report highlights an unusual presentation of eosinophilic fasciitis, reviews classic diagnostic criteria and underscores a situation when it may be reasonable to avoid full thickness skin biopsy and opt for early treatment.
