Cherry angioma: A case-control study.
Article in Journal of family & community medicine. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundCherry angiomas (CAs) are very common asymptomatic vascular skin lesions. There are only a few studies on CAs in the literature and those assessing risk factors of CAs are scarce. The aim of our study was to determine risk factors for the development of CAs. MATERIALS AND
methodsA case-control study was conducted at a tertiary care center in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Patients underwent a full-body examination for CAs. Demographics and other data including medical history and medications were extracted from electronic medical records.
resultsA total of three hundred patients were enrolled: one hundred cases with at least five CAs and two hundred controls without CAs. Bivariate analysis identified benign prostatic hyperplasia (odds ratio [OR]: = 2.591), malignancy (OR = 2.567), tamsulosin (OR = 3.171), and clopidogrel (OR = 0.321) as statistically significant associations. After multivariate logistic regression analysis, only tamsulosin (OR = 3.475,
conclusionTamsulosin is a possible risk factor for the development of CAs. Clopidogrel seems to have a protective role preventing the development of CAs.
