A rare ossifying trichilemmal cyst in a young female patient: a case report and literature review.
Article in Dermatology reports, 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
Trichilemmal cysts (TCs) constitute the second most common cutaneous cysts and are mostly presented on the scalp of middleaged women. Therefore, it is unusual for a young person to have a TC and it is extremely rare for a TC to be ossified. In the literature, only 8 cases of TCs with concomitant ossification have been described. We report the case of a 22-year-old female who presented with a scalp nodule and was treated via surgical excision of the lesion. The pathology examination of the surgical specimen revealed a lesion consisting of a multilayered squamous epithelium of slightly eosinophilic maturing keratinocytes. There was no granular layer, whereas the core of the lesion was occupied by mature bone tissue with calcium deposits. The definite diagnosis of the pathology report was ossifying TC. The aim of this report is, to enlighten clinicians about this rare pathological entity.
