A Review of the Scoring and Assessment of Keratosis Pilaris.
Review in Skin appendage disorders, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07078461 (Investigating the Safety and Efficacy of the 1927-nm Thulium Laser for Soft Tissue Coagulation in Keratosis Pilaris), which is not on this map. Cited by 4 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.

Abstract
Disease severity assessment tools play a large part in evaluating skin conditions in dermatology. Currently, there is no existing validated assessment tool for keratosis pilaris (KP), a benign yet highly prevalent follicular disorder. A range of proposed scoring tools have been used in different clinical trials for the assessment of potential treatments for KP. A literature review of the current scoring systems used for KP shows that there is a lack of consistency with most studies using varying versions of unvalidated investigator global assessment (IGA) scores and quartile grading systems. A review of these studies shows that current methods of evaluating KP in clinical trials are subjective, unreliable, and inconsistent. A standardised and validated scoring system would be significant as it could be used in clinical trials to advance the current knowledge of KP.
