Sequential Dermoscopy and Reflectance Confocal Microscopy Paired With Pigmented Lesion Assay Gene Expression Profiling for In Vivo Monitoring of Multiple Halo Nevi on an Adult Patient.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The halo nevus is characterized by a ring of depigmentation appearing around an acquired or congenital melanocytic nevus. When observed in children, halo nevi are generally not a cause of concern. However, adult-onset halo nevi have an associated risk of primary cutaneous melanoma that corresponds to the risk of melanoma in patients with atypical nevi or a personal/familial history of melanoma. Thus, new-onset halo nevi in adults requires close follow-up and monitoring for malignancy. Herein we present a case of an adult patient who received sequential digital dermoscopy, reflectance confocal microscopy, and pigmented lesion assay gene expression profiling to monitor two halo nevi over a three-month period.
