Dermatology on the global stage: The role of dermatologists in international health advocacy and COVID-19 research.
Review in International journal of women's dermatology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundOver the last decade, there has been a surge in interest and funding for global health dermatology. Skin conditions are now recognized as the fourth leading cause of nonfatal disease burden worldwide in disability-adjusted life years. Dermatologists are uniquely positioned within global health because skin conditions are often the presenting sign of severe illnesses, such as neglected tropical diseases and COVID-19.
methodsWe review four major areas of work by dermatologists within global health: i) characterization of global burden of skin disease, ii) advocacy for dermatologic therapies on the World Health Organization's Model List of Essential Medicines, iii) advancements in global programming for skin-related tropical diseases, and iv) the role of dermatologists during the COVID-19 pandemic. For each area of work, the significance and impact on the health of women and girls is briefly highlighted.
resultsDermatologists have led the efforts to quantify and evaluate the global burden of skin disease, the burden of which is disproportionately shared by women. The dermatology community has also championed global efforts to eliminate skin-related neglected tropical diseases, such as scabies. Through national and international policy advocacy, dermatologists have pushed for more dermatologic therapies in the World Health Organization's Model List of Essential Medicines, helping to secure better care for patients with skin disease throughout the world. Since 2020, the dermatology community has worked collaboratively in the fight against COVID-19, establishing a worldwide registry for cutaneous manifestations of SARS-CoV-2 and pursuing research that has allowed colleagues in the house of medicine to better understand this landmark disease.
conclusionThrough the study and promotion of global health, dermatologists have an important role in the house of medicine.
