Cutaneous mastocytosis in childhood.
Review in Allergologie select, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Mastocytoses are characterized by clonal proliferation of mast cells in various tissues. In childhood, cutaneous mastocytosis (CM) occurs almost exclusively. It is confined to the skin, and has a good prognosis. The most common form is the maculopapular cutaneous mastocytosis (MPCM), formerly called urticaria pigmentosa. A distinction is made between a monomorphic variant of MPCM with multiple small, roundish maculopapular skin lesions and the - more common - polymorphic variant with larger lesions of variable size. One quarter of CM diagnosed in childhood are mastocytomas, which often occur solitary or at multiple sites. The diffuse variant of CM (DCM), which affects 5% of children with CM, should be distinguished from these forms. Systemic mastocytoses (SM) with mast cell infiltrates in the bone marrow or other extracutaneous tissues, such as the gastrointestinal tract, occur predominantly in adults. The diagnosis of CM is usually made clinically: Manifestation in infancy, typical morphology and distribution, pathognomonic Darier sign. Basal serum tryptase is determined if DCM or systemic mastocytosis are to be diagnosed. Children with mastocytosis should be managed in a specialized outpatient clinic. For affected families, detailed information about the clinical picture including prognosis assessment is essential. Mast cell mediated symptoms are controlled by oral non-sedating antihistamines if needed.
