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

Dear Editor, Aplasia cutis congenita (ACC) is a rare congenital malformation characterized by the focal absence of skin visible at birth, most frequently involving the scalp, although any part of the body may be affected. The estimated incidence is approximately 1 to 3 per 10,000 live births. The pathogenesis is heterogeneous and yet not fully understood. Proposed etiologies include genetic factors, teratogenic insult exposure, vascular disruptions, and mechanical trauma in utero. Clinically, ACC presents with variable morphology. The most frequent presentation is a well-demarcated area of ulceration or atrophic scarring on the scalp. ACC can rarely manifest as a bullous or membranous lesion with a cystic, translucent appearance, occasionally associated with deeper tissue involvement. [...].
