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

In a bilaterally paired double-blind comparison study, a cream containing 0.1% 13-cis-retinoic acid (13-cis-RA) and cream base only were applied over 4 weeks in seven patients with non-erythrodermic lamellar ichthyosis (NELI), two patients with Darier's disease and one patient with autosomal dominant ichthyosis vulgaris (ADIV). In two patients with NELI and two patients with Darier's disease a half-side effect was observed in favour of the side treated with 13-cis-RA. In three patients an induction of cytokeratin-4, and in one of these patients expression of cytokeratin-13, were observed after therapy. Topical 13-cis-RA appears to be a promising approach in the treatment of disorders of keratinization. The selective modulation of the cytokeratin pattern may provide an immunohistochemical tool to investigate the mode of action of retinoids.
