Aplasia cutis congenita type VII of the lower extremity: a favourable disease course with minimal conservative treatment.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2024. 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
Aplasia cutis congenita (ACC) is a group of rare heterogeneous disorders characterised by absent areas of skin at birth. The majority of cases involve the scalp region. ACC limited to one lower limb is extremely rare. We report an usual case of ACC limited to the left thigh of which healing occurred in utero. The case was managed conservatively and the disease course has been favourable with no limitations in limb function and an entirely normal development. Most cases of ACC are self-healing, justifying a conservative approach. This holds further true for ACC limited to one lower limb where the majority of cases reported to date show a favourable disease course with minimal conservative treatment.
