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

Objective: To report a rare case of refractory generalized Darier's disease (DD), also known as keratosis follicularis, with a disease duration exceeding 40 years and to explore the therapeutic effect of the interleukin-17A inhibitor secukinumab. Methods: Clinical data were collected. Skin histopathological examination was performed using hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining, and Results: The patient presented with generalized hyperpigmentation, widespread keratotic papules and plaques, some with an oyster-shell appearance, covered with greasy crusts. Histopathology examination further revealed characteristic suprabasal clefts, acantholysis, and dyskeratotic cells (corps ronds and grains). Genetic testing subsequently identified a heterozygous c.479C>T (p.P160L) mutation in the Conclusion: This case represents a severe form of generalized Darier's disease with well-defined clinical, pathological, and genetic features. Secukinumab treatment suggested partial clinical improvement, although complete clearance was not achieved. However, the patient discontinued treatment due to financial constraints, and long-term follow-up data are lacking, warranting further investigation. This report provides preliminary experience with biologic therapy for this condition, and the findings require confirmation through controlled studies.
