Article in The Journal of investigative dermatology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
In various diseases, particularly cancer, cell-free DNA (cfDNA) has been widely studied as a marker of disease prognosis or to facilitate the detection of therapeutic targets. In dermatology, most studies have focused on melanoma; other skin diseases such as vascular malformations and psoriasis have also been examined. Genetic alterations unique to the tissue of origin such as sequence variations, copy number alterations, chromosomal rearrangements, differential DNA methylation patterns, and fragmentation patterns can be identified in circulation providing information on patient disease status. These alterations can be detected either by PCR-based methods or next-generation sequencing depending on the target of interest. In this article, we discuss the origins of cfDNA, the most common methods of detection, current studies assessing cfDNA as a biomarker, and cfDNA's potential clinical applications in melanoma and other skin diseases. In addition, we provide important factors to consider during blood processing and DNA extraction as well as limitations for each assay.
