Markedly Exophytic Hypertrophic Lichen Planus in a Patient With Ichthyosis Vulgaris.
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
Hypertrophic lichen planus (HLP) is an idiopathic inflammatory condition characterized by hyperkeratotic plaques or nodules, typically occurring bilaterally on the wrists, ankles, or lower extremities. This variant of lichen planus is more common among African-American patients and occupies a broad differential with other keratotic skin conditions, some of which are malignant, making recognition and accurate diagnosis essential. We present an unusual case of a 49-year-old African-American woman with four markedly exophytic, horn-like lesions on her shins, ultimately diagnosed as HLP. Her medical history was also notable for ichthyosis vulgaris. Although no known interaction exists between HLP and ichthyosis vulgaris, the combination of these conditions may have contributed to intense pruritus, leading to increased excoriation. This excoriation could have influenced the unusual growth pattern, as mechanical disruption is associated with increased keratin production in hyperkeratotic conditions.
