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

introductionBiological agents used in the treatment of rheumatic diseases and malignancies cause an increase in herpes zoster susceptibility. This may also be the case for monoclonal antibody treatments used in asthma based on recent pharmacovigilance data. CASE REPORT: Herpetic lesions occurred on the anterior chest wall of a 43-year-old patient who was initiated on benralizumab treatment for severe eosinophilic asthma. The patient received diagnosis of herpes zoster and showed significant clinical improvement with oral valacyclovir treatment. Since it was not certain whether the herpes eruption was directly related to benralizumab treatment, benralizumab treatment was continued at the patient's request and with the approval of the dermatology department. The patient did not experience recurrent herpes eruptions or any other clinical problems with the repeated doses given.
