Subcutaneous Granuloma Annulare Mimicking Rheumatoid Nodules: A Diagnostic Challenge.
Article in Cureus, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Subcutaneous granuloma annulare (SGA) is a rare skin condition that has overlapping features with rheumatoid nodules due to similar clinical and histological features. A 42-year-old female with a history of celiac disease and a family history of rheumatoid arthritis developed progressively painful nodules on her right hand. She was initially thought to have rheumatoid arthritis, but her serological markers were negative, and an incisional biopsy revealed palisaded granulomas with central mucin and necrobiotic collagen that led to a diagnosis of SGA. Differentiating between these two conditions is important because rheumatoid nodules require immunosuppressive therapy due to systemic inflammation, while SGA is a self-limiting benign condition. This case highlights the need for a biopsy of atypical subcutaneous nodules and the importance of combining clinical, pathological, and interdisciplinary expertise to ensure accurate diagnosis and the best patient care.
