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

Subcutaneous fat necrosis of the newborn (SCFN) is a rare panniculitis that typically presents within the first few weeks of life. We report a unique case of SCFN diagnosed as early as day three of life in a large-for-gestational-age neonate born to a diabetic mother. Notably, the lesion exhibited a central purpuric area with an irregular, serrated erythematous border, which was clearly visualized using dermoscopy. Histological confirmation was limited due to sampling constraints, but the clinical features and evolution were consistent with SCFN. This case highlights the utility of early dermatologic assessment and dermoscopy in identifying SCFN with atypical hemorrhagic features, expanding the clinical spectrum of this condition.
