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

Diagnostic delay is common in hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), yet the influence of socioeconomic status remains poorly understood. In this cross-sectional study of patients with HS enrolled in a single-institution longitudinal cohort, time to diagnosis was 53% shorter among patients with less than a bachelor's degree and 73.1% longer among those living in nonmetropolitan or smaller metropolitan areas. Time to diagnosis was not associated with Hurley stage. Larger studies are needed to clarify socioeconomic drivers of delayed HS diagnosis and disease outcomes.
