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

Scleredema adultorum of Buschke is an important differential diagnosis in sclerosing diseases. Diagnosis is based on the typical histology with mucin deposits and grossly increased dermal width and a clinical presentation of diffuse non-pitting induration of the skin starting at the nape of the neck and interscapular region extending to shoulders and upper thorax, causing dysmobility due to dermal stiffness. Even though the pathogenesis remains unclear, three subtypes can be distinguished: association with infections, paraproteins, or most frequently with diabetes mellitus. Management of the disease includes physiotherapy, physical therapies such as ultraviolet (UV) or ionizing irradiation, intravenous immunoglobulins and interdisciplinary treatment directed at associated diseases. Optimizing diabetes therapy and thereby decreasing insulin use may confer significant improvement.
