Cross-sectional Study Shows an Association between Paediatric Lichen Planus and Dyslipidemia.

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
Background: Few studies have shown an association between adult lichen planus and dyslipidemia, but none has shown an association with the pediatric population. We planned to study the association between pediatric lichen planus and metabolic syndrome (MS). Methodology: This is a single-centre, cross-sectional, case-control study from July 2018 to December 2019 at a tertiary care institute. Twenty children in the age group of 6-16 years, diagnosed as cases of childhood/adolescent lichen planus, and 40 age- and sex-matched controls were included in this study and evaluated for metabolic syndrome.Patients' anthropometry including weight, height, waist circumference, and body mass index (BMI) was recorded. Blood samples were sent for the measurement of fasting plasma glucose, high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, and triglyceride levels. Results: The mean HDL was found to be significantly lower in children with lichen planus compared to children without lichen planus ( Conclusions and Relevance: This study shows an association between paediatric lichen planus and dyslipidemia.
