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
Kissing nevus is a congenital melanocytic neoplasm arising in those parts of the body that split at some point during embryological development (i.e., eyelid; penis), resulting in two adjacent melanocytic nevi. To date, 23 cases of kissing nevus of the penis have been described, and dermatoscopic and histological findings are available in 4/23 cases. We report a dermatoscopic, histological and confocal microscopic analysis in a new case of the kissing nevus of the penis in a 57 years old man. Dermatoscopic analysis showed large globules in the central area and a peripheral pigment network; the histological examination confirmed the presence of an intradermal melanocytic nevus with minimal junctional component and congenital features. Moreover, we reported, for the first time, confocal microscopy findings in the kissing nevus of the penis, revealing the presence of dendritic cells in correspondence with the epidermis and suggesting a state of cellular activity. Considering the clinicopathological features of the lesion, a conservative approach was adopted, and a clinical follow-up was planned after six months.
