1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Hair loss disorders may cause considerable distress to patients. Although many do not pose a significant medical risk, the sociocultural importance of hair is substantial. Often the extent of hair loss does not correlate to the impact on psychosocial function, thus necessitating an individualized approach. Hair loss disorders are interrelated with mental health and at times exert significant psychological percussions, and therefore, providers should address both medical and psychological aspects of treatment. This review contains a discussion of the impact on quality of life of common hair loss disorders and the psychological approaches that providers may utilize to improve care. The incorporation of psychodermatology and psychotrichology in dermatology and psychiatry residency programs is of vital importance. Dermatology and psychiatry liaison clinics may prove useful in the treatment of these patients.
