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

Growing evidence demonstrates that various nevoid proliferations such as keratinocytic epidermal nevi and nevus sebaceous result from somatic mosaicism. Many of the mutations identified have been within the RAF/RAS/MAPK pathway, hence supporting the previously introduced term "mosaic RASopathy" for these nevi. In this issue, Kinsler et al. were among the first to characterize certain pigmented melanocytic nevi that may also fit this paradigm. To better frame these findings, we provide a summary of the analogous genotypic profiles for epidermal and melanocytic nevi from recent studies.
