Multiple glomus tumours: Clinical, ultrasonographic and histopathologic findings of a rare disease.
Article in Skin health and disease, 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
Glomus tumour is a rare benign neoplasm originating from the glomus body, clinically presenting as a violet-coloured, painful nodule more sensitive when exposed to cold or hot. This hamartoma is typically solitary and predominantly affects the limbs, extremities and nail beds. The appearance of multiple tumours and lesions not placed in the extremities is rare and frequently misdiagnosed. At dermoscopy, it appears as a homogeneous, structureless, purplish area surrounded by a whitish region. Skin ultrasound shows a well-defined, round, hypoechoic mass. We report a case of numerous blue-purplish painful nodules distributed in the trunk and arms while sparing the extremities, with typical dermoscopy and ultrasound findings. A biopsy was performed, confirming the diagnosis of glomangioma. We call attention to this rare condition to help dermatologists make this diagnosis when facing multiple painful nodules.
