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
Cutis Verticis Gyrata (CVG) is an uncommon condition, often classified as primary (idiopathic) or secondary to other diseases or syndromes. Its pathogenesis remains poorly understood, and its association with genetic syndromes is particularly rare. Noonan and Turner syndromes are distinct genetic disorders with characteristic phenotypes and multiple systemic involvements. This report aims to highlight the diagnostic complexities when CVG presents in the backdrop of these syndromes. A 38 years old patient was presented with chief complaints of receding hairline, dropping eyelids, cerebral deformations with deep furrows and thickened dermis. On the basis of patient's complaints, Noonan or turner syndrome was considered as possible diagnosis. This particular report presents a case of patient suffering from CVG having history of noonan and turner syndrome. With the detailed MRI, histology etc. CVG was finally confirmed. The novelty of this case lies in its rarity, diagnostic complexity, and the need for a multidisciplinary approach to unravel and manage the intersecting conditions. It contributes valuable insights to the existing medical literature, enhancing our understanding of the interplay between dermatological and genetic conditions. Patients with Noonan and turner syndrome exhibit clinical signs and symptoms that are strikingly similar to those of CVG, suggesting that this presents a significant diagnostic problem. An unfavorable outcome could arise from delayed or incorrect diagnosis. Because of this, it is recommended that healthcare fraternities should include uncommon illnesses like CVG as differential diagnosis. Considering CVG in differential diagnosis is crucial for early identification, accurate diagnosis, and comprehensive management. It ensures that associated systemic and genetic conditions are not overlooked and that patients receive holistic and personalized care.
