Blue Laser (450 nm) Treatment of Solar Lentigines.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 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
This study tested a blue light source for the treatment of solar lentigines. A total of 14 patients with solar lentigines were treated with radiation from a novel, high-power 450 nm blue laser that was created for this project. The group contained eight patients with solar lentigines on the face, two patients with the lesions on the dorsal of the hands, and four patients with the lesions on the trunk and forearms. The best results (complete recovery) have been achieved for the lesions on the face and dorsal of the hands. The treatment of lesions on the trunk and forearms was not fully satisfying due to the occurrence of slight scarring. This study shows that, in some cases, the use of a blue laser may be an alternative to the use of longer wavelength sources.
