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

Skin fragility, palmoplantar keratoderma, and characteristic woolly hair are defining features of skin fragility-woolly hair syndrome (SFWHS), an extremely rare inherited disorder. This condition is classified within the group of desmosomal disorders, which are associated with compromised structural integrity of the skin and hair. Clinically, affected individuals often present with hair fragility, fragile skin, recurrent erosions, nail abnormalities, and varying degrees of palmoplantar thickening beginning in early childhood. In this case report, we describe a patient with this extremely rare syndrome.
