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

Toxic epidermal necrolysis-like acute cutaneous lupus erythematosus (TEN-like ACLE) is a rare and severe form of cutaneous lupus erythematosus with an unclear etiology. We present a case of a 49-year-old woman with a past medical history of systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, and Sjögren's overlap syndrome who developed TEN-like ACLE following a week-long upper respiratory infection (URI). While there are reported cases of TEN-like ACLE associated with excessive ultraviolet light exposure and abrupt medication discontinuation, this case uniquely highlights the novel association between URI and TEN-like ACLE, suggesting that URI may act as a previously unrecognized environmental trigger and precipitating agent for this rare condition.
