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

Cutaneous adverse drug reactions to carbamazepine range from mild maculopapular exanthema to life-threatening syndromes such as Stevens-Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis. While the immunological basis for HLA-B*15:02-restricted carbamazepine-induced SJS/TEN has received greater attention, mechanisms underlying mild maculopapular exanthema remain poorly understood. In this study, we examined circulating T-cell immune recognition and transcriptomic signatures in the blood of patients with carbamazepine-induced maculopapular exanthema during active and resolved disease and compared these profiles with severe reactions. Peripheral blood was collected from patients with active (< 9 days post-diagnosis;
