Prevalence, severity and predictors of hand eczema in patients treated for atopic dermatitis: a cross-sectional observational study.
Observational study in Archives of dermatological research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundHand eczema (HE) is common among individuals with atopic dermatitis (AD), yet data on its prevalence and predictors in this population remain limited.
methodsA prospective, dermatology practice-based study was performed in adult patients with AD to determine the prevalence of HE and associations with HE severity. AD severity was assessed using Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA), body surface area (BSA), Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI), Scoring AD (SCORAD), objective component of SCORAD (O-SCORAD), Patient-reported Global AD severity (PtGA) and Patient-Oriented Eczema Measure (POEM).
resultsActive HE was observed in 135 (45.9%) patients, including 83 (61.5%) with mild, 43 (31.9%) with moderate and 9 (6.7%) with severe HE. Lesions affected the dorsal hands or digits in 231 (78.6%), wrists in 69 (51.1%), palmar hands or digits in 113 (38.4%), with nail dystrophy present in only 7 (5.2%). There were no significant associations of HE severity with demographics or self-reported history of atopic disease. However, in bivariable and multivariable logistic regression models, HE severity was associated with moderate and severe IGA, BSA, EASI, SCORAD, O-SCORAD, PtGA and POEM.
conclusionsHE was highly prevalent in adult patients with AD treated in the dermatology setting, particularly among patients with moderate-severe AD.
