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
Aim The article aims to study the prevalence and ocular manifestations of the various types of common skin disorders at a tertiary hospital in Ahmedabad, India. Materials and methods Five hundred patients were studied in the ophthalmology department from September 2017 to September 2019. Results Out of the 500 patients that were included in our study, 312 were males, and 188 were females. In our study, lid involvement was seen most commonly in patients with herpes zoster ophthalmicus (HZO). Plexiform neurofibroma was seen in eight (14.5%) patients with neurofibromatosis (NF). Cicatricial ectropion was found in half of the patients with ichthyosis. Lagophthalmos was present in 10 (20.4%) patients with leprosy. Conjunctivitis was seen commonly in HZO patients. Papillary conjunctivitis was seen in half of the atopic dermatitis cases. Steven Johnson's syndrome (SJS) was associated with pseudomembranous conjunctivitis. Conjunctival xerosis was seen only in patients with Sjogren's syndrome. The cornea was most commonly involved in patients of HZO. Decreased corneal sensation was seen in leprosy and HZO. Lisch nodules were seen in NF cases. Anterior uveitis was found in seven (6.3%) patients with HZO. Glaucoma was seen most commonly in patients with Sturge Weber syndrome (SWS), followed by leprosy. Facial nerve palsy was seen in patients with leprosy. Episcleritis was seen in patients with leprosy and SWS. Conclusion We conclude that ocular involvement in skin disease is a common feature and could be a major component of the development of various systemic skin disorders.
