Obesity-Related Skin Conditions: Exploring the Link.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background Obesity is a medical condition characterized by the accumulation of excess fat that can negatively impact health, resulting in a decreased life expectancy and heightened health issues. Obese patients experience skin changes caused by skin infections, mechanical friction, and various skin hypertrophic conditions like fibromas and acanthosis nigricans. Approximately 60-70% of patients suffering from obesity exhibit a range of skin changes. Objective The main objective of the present study is to identify the various types of skin conditions linked to obesity and investigate their relationship with body mass index (BMI). Methodology This is a cross-sectional observational study. This study included obese patients with a BMI greater than 30 kg/m
