Verruca plana on a tattoo: A case report.
Article in Medicine, 2020. 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
rationaleTattooing is a procedure where ink is inserted typically in the intraepidermal space of the skin. Multiple incidences of viral infections following tattooing which lead to warts have been reported in recent years. The aim of this report was to show a relatively rare adverse effect after tattooing - verruca plana. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 27-year-old female presented to our department with complains of multiple verrucous papules over her 2-year-old tattoo without itch. DIAGNOSES: Pathological investigation confirmed the diagnosis as verruca plana.
interventionsThe patient was treated with 3 cycles of liquid nitrogen cryotherapy and 5% imiquimod cream for 5 months. OUTCOMES: A significant improvement in her lesions was observed after the combined treatment. LESSONS: Clinically, verruca plana post-tattooing is relatively less reported. We need to combine clinical manifestations with pathological results to arrive at a definitive diagnosis. Besides, there are a large numbers of post-tattoo complications and various routes of virus inoculation. Therefore, it is important for medical professionals to caution people before considering to have a tattoo.
