Disseminated Eruptive Blue Nevi in a Young Adult Patient.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Common blue nevi tend to be singular or localized, with multiple eruptive blue nevi being a rare occurrence. We report the case of a young adult who presented with multiple asymptomatic lesions that had appeared gradually over a few years. Physical examination revealed 30 distinct, blue-gray macules diffusely over the medial buttocks, lower back, and dorsal arms. Histopathology showed pigmented dendritic melanocytes with associated melanophages, features characteristic of blue nevus. This case demonstrates that eruptive blue nevi can present as numerous, disseminated lesions over multiple anatomic sites. Recognition of the various patterns of eruptive blue nevi and their benign nature can reduce unnecessary biopsies and work-up.
