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

We present the case of a 95-year-old female patient who presented with erosions and scarring of the scalp, accompanied by long-term hair loss. Due to multiple comorbidities, she was treated with several medications, including zolpidem for insomnia. Clinical examination revealed scars and ulcers in the parietal region, along with diffuse age-related hair thinning. Histopathological analysis demonstrated scarring alopecia with features of local trauma. This case illustrates a rare instance of secondary cicatricial alopecia associated with zolpidem-induced complex sleep-related amnestic behavior. Detailed information on the patient's medication history was crucial for establishing the correct diagnosis.
