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

Rett syndrome (RTT, OMIM 312750) is a complex multisystem neurodevelopmental disorder. Evidence suggests that RTT may have an autoimmune component and inflammatory activation. However, the autoimmune manifestations remain poorly described. Pemphigus foliaceus is a debilitating autoimmune blistering condition caused by IgG autoantibodies that target desmoglein-1 (Dsg1), resulting in widespread skin blistering and lesions. We report a case of pemphigus foliaceus in a 20-year-old female with RTT and discuss its clinical implications. Clinical data obtained from electronic health records were extracted and reviewed. Genetic testing was performed to identify the specific
