Trichoscopy of scalp dysesthesia.
Article in Postepy dermatologii i alergologii, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
introductionScalp dysesthesia is characterized by localized pruritus, burning sensations or even pain.
aimTo describe characteristic trichoscopic features of scalp dysesthesia. MATERIAL AND
methodsThe study was a retrospective analysis (2010-2016) of 9 patients (8 females and 1 male; median age: 52 years; range: 38-66 years). A total of 61 trichoscopic images were analyzed by two independent evaluators.
resultsIn all cases, oval or round areas covered with short hairs: broom hairs (77%; 7/9), block hairs (88%; 8/9), short hairs with trichorrhexis nodosa (78%; 7/9) were found. In 4 of 9 cases these areas were circumscribed by brownish linear discoloration. Background features included: areas lacking hair shafts (44%; 4/9) covered by wavy-shaped scaling, whitish areas with prominent perifollicular yellow discoloration and cloud vessels arranged around follicular openings and around empty follicles (33%, 3/9); focal brownish discoloration with darker wavy lines (78%; 7/9).
conclusionsTrichoscopy can be helpful in establishing the diagnosis of scalp dysesthesia - broom hairs, block hairs and short hairs with trichorrhexis nodosa covering the alopecia patch, uniform in length, can be considered as characteristic for this condition.
