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 increasing popularity of tattoo art, including facial cosmetic tattoos, has led to a growing societal acceptance of tattoos. However, complications such as lip inflammation following cosmetic lip tattoos remain a concern. This article presents the case of a 47-year-old Asian woman who experienced recurrent lip swelling, purulent discharge, and scarring after receiving lip tattoos. Despite previous treatment with corticosteroid injections yielding unsatisfactory results, the patient showed significant improvement with topical application of 2% Crisaborole, a phosphodiesterase-4 inhibitor. Crisaborole modulates intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate levels, thereby reducing tissue inflammation and swelling associated with chronic cheilitis. Additionally, pulse laser therapy was effective in addressing residual tattoo pigment and scar tissue. This case highlights the therapeutic challenges of managing chronic inflammatory diseases of the lips secondary to cosmetic tattoos and introduces Crisaborole as a promising treatment option, offering insights for managing similar conditions in the future.
