Alopecia Areata Barbae in a Nutshell.
Review in Skin appendage disorders, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Beard alopecia areata, or alopecia areata barbae, (BAA) is a subset of alopecia areata, a T-cell mediated inflammatory disease that disrupts the hair follicle cycle leading to early onset of catagen. The aim of this review is to help strengthen clinicians' skills in the evaluation, diagnosis, and management of BAA. We performed a literature review according to the modified PRISMA guidelines, using a combination of relevant key words in electronic databases. According to the data from the 25 articles on BAA reviewed here, BAA mostly affects middle-aged men (mean age 31 years) who typically experience patchy hair loss in the neck region, which spreads to the scalp within 12 months. Similar to AA, BAA is associated with autoimmune diseases such as
