Skin Biopsy, the Allergists' Tool: How to Interpret a Report.
Review in Current allergy and asthma reports, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Inflammatory dermatoses are frequently encountered by the allergist, and histologic evaluation achieved through skin biopsy can be of tremendous value clinically. There is no substitute for a thorough history and physical exam; however, the skin biopsy is a simple, in-office procedure with little risk of complication that can provide invaluable information when a diagnosis is uncertain. Histopathologically, many inflammatory eruptions can look similar or overlap, but information provided by the dermatopathologist can help the clinician render or refine the clinical diagnosis and guide management. This review will discuss descriptive elements contained in the pathology report to provide a framework that can be used by the allergist to comfortably and confidently diagnose inflammatory dermatologic conditions.
