Occupational and Hand Dermatitis: a Practical Approach.
Review in Clinical reviews in allergy & immunology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Occupational skin disease is common. It affects workers more often than reported. Contact dermatitis, both irritant and allergic, accounts for the majority of occupational skin diagnoses. Occupational contact dermatitis (OCD) frequently affects the hands and may have a profound impact on an employee's ability to perform a job. Severe OCD can affect a worker's activities of daily living and can even lead to job loss. Numerous irritants have been described in the workplace, from the common (wet work) to the more obscure (warm, dry air). Several contact allergens may be work-related, and the majority of established occupational allergens are also known nonoccupational allergens. Emerging occupational allergens are continually described in the literature. Patch testing is the gold standard for the workup of allergic contact dermatitis. Patch testing in the setting of OCD may require extended or unique allergen trays, as well as a thorough occupational history and collection of workplace Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS). These MSDS contain valuable information but may not be complete or accurate. Proof of occupational causation can be aided by employing the Mathias criteria. Certain industries and occupations are associated with higher rates of OCD, and as expected, the industries with direct contact with irritants and allergens are highly represented. The differential diagnosis for occupational dermatitis is broad and should be considered when evaluating an employee with suspected OCD. Some other diagnoses to consider include atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, and manifestations of internal disease, as well as an overlap syndrome of more than one diagnosis. OCD treatment should ideally follow the public health hazard controls' stepwise approach. Prevention and early intervention are key to promoting occupational health and preventing OCD. Multidisciplinary teams have been successful in the treatment of OCD, and newly described topical treatments may provide additional modalities for use in the occupational setting.
