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

A 12-year-old patient was hospitalized with suspected recurrent Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) caused by ibuprofen. The patient presented with aphthous lesions on the lips and oral mucosa, accompanied by fever and cough. Further examination revealed more severe symptoms. The exact classification of his skin reaction and the underlying cause were challenging due to the coexistence of multiple potential triggers. The diagnostic overlap among various skin reactions requires careful evaluation of the clinical presentation and histopathological findings in relation to potential drug exposure and/or infectious triggers. Cutaneous reactions such as SJS and fixed drug exanthema are predominantly associated with drug exposure, whereas Erythema multiforme (EM) and
