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

Vasculitis comprises a spectrum of disorders defined inflammation of the blood vessel walls and is categorized based on vessel size into small-, medium-, and large-vessel vasculitis. The histological characteristics of leukocytoclastic vasculitis include neutrophil infiltration around small cutaneous blood arteries and fibrinoid necrotizing inflammation. Annular morphology is a unique and rare type of leukocytoclastic vasculitis. We report a case of annular leukocytoclastic vasculitis in a 39-year-old Saudi man who presented with scaly annular erythema and targetoid lesion configurations with prominent, raised borders. He was managed with oral prednisolone 40 mg daily as a tapered dosage regimen, in combination with topical mometasone furoate 0.1% cream applied twice daily, resulting in complete resolution of lesions. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of annular morphology of leukocytoclastic vasculitis with microvascular occlusions in the Middle East.
