Histopathological Coexistence of Extragenital Lichen Sclerosus and Morphea in a Single Lesion.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Lichen sclerosus (LS) and morphea are two infrequent inflammatory dermatoses of unknown etiology. LS is characterized by, polygonal, bluish-white, slightly elevated papules that coalesce into plaques, which become increasingly atrophic overtime.it mostly affects genitals, however, it can affect any site on the skin and mucosa. Morphea characterized by, erythematous to violaceous patches or plaque with a white, sclerotic center, and the outer edge of the lesions take on the characteristic violaceous ring. The overlapping clinical and histopathologic features of both LS and morphea in the same patient have led some to speculate that they may have a common pathologic link or that both conditions represent the same disease spectrum. The coexistence of LS and morphea in the same lesion is a rare finding. We present a patient, who was diagnosed with what appeared clinically to be extragenital LS, but with histopathologic features of both LS and morphea.
