Vitiligo: Unmet Need, Management and Treatment Guidelines.
Review in Dermatology practical & conceptual, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Vitiligo is a chronic depigmenting disorder characterized by characteristic, non-scaly, chalky-white skin macules and patches, due to the loss of skin pigment. Its exact pathogenesis is still not fully understood but it seems to be an autoimmune disease where the combination of genetic, environmental, and immune factors contributes to the destruction of melanocytes in the epidermis. Vitiligo is classified into different types based on its clinical characteristics and distribution patterns. The two main forms of vitiligo are non-segmental vitiligo (NSV) and segmental vitiligo (SV). NSV is the predominant form, characterized by symmetrical skin patches, that tend to evolve over time. In contrast, SV has unilateral or band-shaped lesions that progress rapidly but often stabilize early. Herein, current unmet needs in terms of psychosocial consequences and relative lack of valid therapeutic approaches are critically analyzed and put in perspective in the Italian prescribing scenario. Finally, available management guidelines are illustrated and briefly compared, to provide context for upcoming treatment options.
