Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundThe increase in demand for Telemedicine globally has continued to rise in recent months, showing remarkable success in a variety of medical fields. As dermatology shows one of the most prolific rates of success, having a clear national picture of practitioner opinion on the subject is important. In this study we aimed to quantify the overall level of acceptance and satisfaction of Saudi dermatologists towards the practice of teledermatology. DESIGN AND
settingData was collected by means of a survey which included demographic data and level of exposure and overall satisfaction towards Telemedicine in their field. Results: A total of 102 questionnaires were returned of which 57.8% had engaged in at least one teleconsultation. Of these, 71.2% showed support for the technology, with negative responses being associated with poor infrastructure or implementation in the workplace.
conclusionThe acceptance of dermatologists to teledermatology consultations in Saudi Arabia shows a positive tendency, with the majority of those who engaged in the practice saying they would do so again and find it satisfactory. Creating more reliable and robust tools and greater training in their use would be beneficial for its further incorporation.
