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
Contact dermatitis and psoriasis are common skin disorders which represent two distinct pathologies. Skin disorders heavily rely on corresponding history for diagnosis; this case demonstrates the challenges of relying on history alone for final identification. A patient presented to clinic for evaluation of a new rash on his abdomen. Past medical history was notable for recent initiation of a smoking cessation program utilizing nicotine patches as well as a pharyngitis treated with antibiotics 1 week prior. Despite use of topical steroid and cessation of the patches, the well-demarcated rash became more generalized. Patch testing for the nicotine patch and chemical sensitizers was negative and an eventual biopsy was consistent with guttate psoriasis. Contact dermatitis relies heavily on clinical history for diagnosis. This case demonstrates that history can be misleading. In retrospect, it is likely that a preceding presumed streptococcal infection was the primary inducer of guttate psoriasis.
