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

We report the case of a 9-year-old boy with typical clinical and histopathologic features of childhood granulomatous periorificial dermatitis. Despite multiple previous treatment attempts, the condition persisted. The patient had a concurrent history of asthma and was receiving daily inhaled fluticasone therapy. Management was challenging, as the patient exhibited resistance to conventional treatments, possibly owing to the use of inhaled corticosteroids, where discontinuation is usually the first step. Therapy with topical and a single dose of oral ivermectin was employed successfully, likely owing to its anti-inflammatory and anti-parasitic effects on
