Treatment of Chemotherapy-Induced Subungual Pyogenic Granuloma with Topical Timolol Solution.
Article in Skin appendage disorders, 2021. 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
introductionSubungual pyogenic granuloma (PG) can be caused by numerous medications including chemotherapeutic agents. These lesions grow rapidly, oftentimes causing significant pain and bleeding, prompting patients to seek treatment. The management of subungual PG ranges from topical steroids to surgical excision. However, patients with chemotherapy-induced PGs are prone to developing multiple or recurrent lesions. Therefore, finding a therapeutic option that effectively eliminates the tumor and prevents the need for repeated procedural interventions is important. The use of topical β-adrenergic antagonists has been reported to be effective in regressing cutaneous PG. CASE PRESENTATION: In this report, we present a case of chemotherapy-induced subungual PG of the toenail arising in a 62-year-old woman that was successfully treated with topical timolol solution.
conclusionThis case highlights the promising use of timolol solution for therapeutically challenging PGs, such as those of subungual regions. This option may be particularly useful for individuals who are vulnerable to multiple PGs secondary to chemotherapy who wish to avoid repeated procedural interventions.
