Cutting Through Complexity: Surgical Management of Severe Palmoplantar Keratoderma.
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
Olmsted syndrome is a rare genetic disorder characterized by severe thickening of the palms and soles, often resistant to conventional treatments. We present the case of a patient with Olmsted syndrome with a 16-year follow-up. The patient presented at five years of age with treatment-resistant palmoplantar keratoderma despite three years of dermatological management, leading to complications. Surgical interventions included initial debridement down to the deep dermis, which resulted in recurrence after three months. This was followed by a decision for extensive excision down to the subcutaneous tissue, use of a bilayer wound matrix dressing followed by negative pressure wound therapy, and a thin split-thickness graft, resulting in full resolution. The patient, now a college student, has regained normal daily activities. This case underscores the challenges and highlights a novel surgical approach for managing Olmsted syndrome, demonstrating a 16-year follow-up and aiming to improve patient outcomes in these complex cases.
