Investigating the Prevalence, Gender Predilection, and Inheritance Patterns of Genodermatoses: A Tertiary Hospital Study.
Article in Cureus, 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
Genodermatoses encompass a spectrum of hereditary skin disorders stemming from mutations in genes pivotal for skin development, structure, and function. This study investigated the prevalence, gender predilection, and inheritance patterns of genodermatoses in a tertiary-level hospital through a one-year observational study. Among 157,051 dermatology outpatient department patients, 105 cases of genodermatoses were diagnosed, yielding a prevalence rate of 0.067%. Hamartoneoplastic syndromes and inherited disorders of cornification were the most prevalent subgroups, with neurofibromatosis type 1 and tuberous sclerosis complex 1 leading within these categories. The average age at presentation varied among different subgroups. A 2:1 male-to-female ratio was observed across all subgroups. Autosomal dominant inheritance was predominant. A positive family history in 46 cases and consanguinity among parents in 28 instances was reported. Genodermatoses pose diagnostic challenges due to their clinical complexity and rarity, which is compounded by limited epidemiological data. Molecular diagnosis advancements offer insights into genotype-phenotype correlations and facilitate genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis (PND). Raising awareness among healthcare professionals and the public is critical for improving the quality of life for affected individuals.
