Whole Exome Sequencing Reveals Clustering of Variants of Known Vitiligo Genes in Multiplex Consanguineous Pakistani Families.
Article in Genes, 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
Vitiligo is an autoimmune complex pigmentation disease characterized by non-pigmented patches on the surface of the skin that affect approximately 0.5-2% population worldwide. The exact etiology is still unknown; however, vitiligo is hypothesized to be a multifactorial and genetically heterogeneous condition. Therefore, the current study is designed to investigate the anthropometric presentation and genetic spectrum of vitiligo in fifteen consanguineous Pakistani families. The clinical evaluation of participating individuals revealed varying degrees of disease severity, with 23 years as the average age of disease onset. The majority of the affected individuals had non-segmental vitiligo (NSV). Whole exome sequencing analysis revealed clustering of rare variants of known vitiligo-associated genes. For instance, in the affected individuals of family VF-12, we identified three novel rare variants of
