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

Infectious eczematoid dermatitis (IED) is a rare and often underrecognized inflammatory skin condition, particularly in pediatric patients. We present the case of a previously healthy 12-year-old Hispanic child with erythematous, scaly, and pruritic plaques involving the tragus, antitragus, external auditory meatus and lobule of both ears. The lesions were initially treated with topical fluocinolone acetonide prescribed by an otolaryngologist, without clinical improvement. Upon evaluation in our dermatology clinic, a skin culture revealed
