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

Cutaneous lymphoid hyperplasia (CLH) is a localized reactive proliferation of polyclonal lymphoid cells in the skin. The condition can be idiopathic or result from various stimuli, with indolent nodular/papular lesions on exposed body areas. Despite its benign nature, it mimics cutaneous lymphomas both clinically and histologically. We present the case of a 56-year-old male patient who developed multiple erythematous papules and nodules on the forehead, gradually increased in size and number over a period of two months. Routine histological studies revealed dermal lymphocytic infiltrates, multiple lymphoid follicles with germinal centers containing tingible body macrophages. Immunohistochemical staining revealed a mixed population of B and T lymphocytes. The reactive germinal centers retained immunoreactivity for CD10 but did not show co-expression of BCL2. These findings confirmed the diagnosis of CHL. The patient was treated with three sessions of pulsed dye laser (PDL), followed by intralesional steroid and topical tacrolimus, with uneventful recovery after five years of follow-up. We also discuss the etiology, clinical features, diagnosis, and available management modalities for CLH.
