Chronic actinic dermatitis in the elderly: recognition and treatment.
Review in Drugs & aging, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Chronic actinic dermatitis is a condition involving abnormal cutaneous photosensitivity to UV and, often, visible wavelengths. It is rare, but more common in the elderly than in younger populations, with an estimated prevalence of one in 2000 in the > or = 75-year-old population in Tayside, Dundee, Scotland. It usually presents as a dermatitis that maximally, but not exclusively, affects photo-exposed skin. Investigation to confirm the diagnosis and guide management includes phototesting and patch testing. The mainstay of treatment is education about the condition and advice on sunlight and allergen avoidance. Topical corticosteroids and emollients are always required, at least intermittently, and it is sometimes necessary to resort to systemic immunosuppression, usually with corticosteroids or azathioprine.
