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

Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is the most common autoimmune blistering disorder in older patients and is typically managed with long-term immunosuppressive therapy tailored to the patient's comorbidities and overall health. Patients who are frail with concurrent haematological malignancies represent a particularly vulnerable population due to their impaired immunity and treatment-related immunosuppression. We report the case of an 85-year-old man with mantle cell lymphoma, previously treated with rituximab and ibrutinib, who developed BP confirmed by histology, direct immunofluorescence, indirect immunofluorescence and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Initial disease control was achieved with systemic corticosteroids and methotrexate. Subsequently, he developed a subcutaneous thoracic nodule consistent with panniculitis, followed by cerebral nocardiosis and
