Erythematous Linear Lesion on the Course of Superficial Fibular Nerve After the Topical Application of Black Henna: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2023. 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
Henna is commonly used in body arts, where it produces orange-brown color. It is often mixed with chemicals such as para-phenylenediamine (PPD) to fasten the dyeing process and produce a black color. However, PPD has many allergic and toxic effects. We present a case of henna-induced cutaneous neuritis, which is not reported before. A 27-year-old female presented to our hospital, complaining of pain in her left great toe after applying black henna. Upon examination, the proximal nail fold was inflamed, and an erythematous non-palpable tender lesion was noticed on the dorsum of the foot. The lesion had an inverted-Y shape that was confined to the course of the superficial fibular nerve. Cutaneous nerve inflammation was favored after excluding all the anatomical structures in the region. Black henna should be avoided since it contains PPD, which can be absorbed through the skin and affect the underlying cutaneous nerves.
