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

Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a rare inflammatory skin disorder characterized by neutrophil accumulation, commonly appearing as erythematous papules or pustules that can coalesce into extensive ulcers. It is the second most common dermatologic manifestation of inflammatory bowel disease, though it affects <1% of patients with inflammatory bowel disease. We present a case of a 66-year-old woman with a history of hypothyroidism and hypertension who developed nonhealing abdominal wounds following a small pustule. Despite multiple debridements and antibiotics, her condition worsened, alongside a history of bloody diarrhea for 2.5 years. Investigations led to a diagnosis of ulcerative colitis and PG. The patient was treated with high-dose steroids and infliximab. This case highlights the rarity of abdominal PG as an extraintestinal manifestation of ulcerative colitis and emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis and treatment in improving outcomes for affected patients.
