Utility of contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance lymphangiography for yellow nail syndrome with lymphangiopathy: a case report.
Article in Oxford medical case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Yellow nail syndrome (YNS) is a rare disorder characterized by the triad of yellow nails, lymphedema and chronic respiratory manifestations. Lymphatic abnormalities are a characteristic finding of YNS. Nevertheless, proof of lymphatic vessel abnormality by direct needle puncture for contrast agent injection is technically challenging because the lymphatic vessels in YNS are dysplastic. Thus, we opted for contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance (MR) lymphangiography with subcutaneous injection in patients suspected of YNS to facilitate easier comprehensive lymphatic vessel visualization. The lymphatic vessels of the thighs were few and barely recognizable, indicating weak flow cranially and lymphatic vessel hypoplasia. These findings were suggestive of dysplasia of the lymphatic vessels. Therefore, MR lymphangiography may be a useful novel diagnostic modality for YNS.
