Update on Cutaneous Signs to Assist in the Diagnosis of Dermatomyositis.
Review in Current rheumatology reports, 2022. 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
purpose of reviewDermatomyositis (DM) is a heterogeneous idiopathic inflammatory myopathy that can be challenging to diagnose. Learning about the cutaneous manifestations in DM can assist with prompt diagnosis as well as subgroup classification. This review highlights recent data regarding cutaneous signs in DM and their associations with myositis-specific antibodies (MSAs). RECENT
findingsSeveral novel DM skin signs have recently been reported. Novel and confirmatory data have helped to define more clearly the associations between various cutaneous manifestations and MSAs. Awareness of the diverse cutaneous phenotypes can help with the timely diagnosis of DM. As some MSAs are associated with atypical skin features and/or characteristic patterns of clinical findings, knowledge of these associations can help clinicians to recognize DM patients. Understanding how the prevalence and presentation of various cutaneous signs differ among ethnically diverse patients is a high priority for further study.
