Palmar Striated Xanthomas in Clinical Practice.
Article in Journal of the Endocrine Society, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Context: Palmar striated xanthomas (PSX) are macular subcutaneous lesions conferring a yellow-to-orange coloration of palmar and finger creases that characterize dysbetalipoproteinemia, a disease associated with sustained plasma accumulation of triglyceride-rich lipoprotein remnants. Although remnants accumulation may occur in any condition interfering with triglyceride-rich lipoprotein hydrolysis or clearance, the presence of PSX has not been systematically assessed across the spectrum of lipid disorders potentially associated with sustained or recurrent remnants accumulation. Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the occurrence of (PSX) in a wide spectrum of lipid disorders ranging from very severe hypercholesterolemia (homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia) to very severe hypertriglyceridemia (chylomicronemia). Methods: This study involved 3382 dyslipidemic White adult patients (1856 men and 1526 women) seen at the Chicoutimi Hospital Lipid Clinic (Quebec, Canada), covering a wide range of lipid disorders, from severe hypertriglyceridemia to severe hypercholesterolemia. Categorical variables were compared using the Pearson χ Results: A total of 5.1% (173/3382) of the studied patients presented PSX, a majority of them (67.1%) being women. PSX were observed in 18.8% of patients with dysbetalipoproteinemia and also among 14.1% of hypertriglyceridemic patients with partial lipoprotein lipase deficiency, 3.7% of patients with chylomicronemia, and in all those with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia. Overall, 10.7% of patients with PSX did not meet dysbetalipoproteinemia diagnosis criteria. Conclusion: According to our study, the PSX prevalence estimate among patients without dysbetalipoproteinemia would be around 10% and they could be observed in a wide spectrum of lipid disorders associated with recurrent or sustained remnant lipoprotein accumulation.
