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

Epidermolysis bullosa is a rare genetic disorder that leads to skin fragility and the formation of blisters from the slightest trauma. There are 4 major types that have been described, with junctional and dystrophic types being more prone to result in genitourinary tract complications. The most common complication is meatal stenosis. Others include urethral stricture, urinary retention, ureteral stricture, bladder hypertrophy, and urinary tract infections. We report the successful outcome of urethroplasty using buccal graft mucosa for a 34-year-old male with epidermolysis bullosa who suffered from pan-urethral stricture.
