Inherited skin tumour syndromes.
Review in Clinical medicine (London, England), 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
This article provides an overview of selected genetic skin conditions where multiple inherited cutaneous tumours are a central feature. Skin tumours that arise from skin structures such as hair, sweat glands and sebaceous glands are called skin appendage tumours. These tumours are uncommon, but can have important implications for patient care. Certain appendageal tumours, particularly when multiple lesions are seen, may indicate an underlying genetic condition. These tumours may not display clinical features that allow a secure diagnosis to be made, necessitating biopsy and dermatopathological assessment. Coupled with robust clinical assessment, biopsy findings can guide genetic testing as, increasingly, the causative genes are known for these conditions. Here we review illustrative examples of appendageal tumours and relevant advances made in genetic discovery, and suggest when referral to a geneticist may need to be considered.
