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

backgroundThis study aimed to evaluate the effect of mobile application-based cognitive behavioural therapy (MCBT) in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) and comorbid obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).

methodsThis retrospective study analysed 100 patients with AD and comorbid OCD treated at Chengdu First People's Hospital from January 2024 to December 2025. Patients were divided into an MCBT group (n = 50) and a conventional group (n = 50) according to the treatment they received. All patients received routine medication. The conventional group received conventional cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), whereas the MCBT group received MCBT via mobile applications. Treatment duration was 12 weeks for both groups. The Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI), Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (Y-BOCS), Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI), and treatment adherence were compared between the two groups before and after treatment.

resultsAfter 12 weeks of treatment, EASI, Y-BOCS, and DLQI scores significantly reduced from baseline in both groups (all

conclusionsMCBT combined with conventional therapy may alleviate dermatological and obsessive-compulsive symptoms in patients with AD and OCD, while also improving treatment adherence and quality of life. Given its simplicity and feasibility, further large-scale prospective studies are warranted to validate its clinical value.
