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

Introduction: We investigated 6 cases of pemphigoid nodularis under treatment with dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors. Case Representation: In 3 cases, only nodules were observed at the initial presentation, but bullous lesions appeared during the course of the disease. All patients had diabetes mellitus and were taking DPP-4 inhibitors from 1 to 1.5 years. Anti-BP180Nc16a antibodies were positive in 3 cases, and low or negative in 3 cases. Full-length BP180 antibodies were analyzed in 2 of the 6 cases and were positive in both. Since patients with diabetes mellitus occasionally develop prurigo nodularis, it is important not to misdiagnose pemphigoid nodularis as prurigo nodularis. Conclusion: There are few reports of pemphigoid nodularis under DPP-4 inhibitors. It should be noted that not only bullous pemphigoid but also pemphigoid nodularis can be induced by DPP-4 inhibitors.
