Case Report: Prenatal ultrasound presentation of congenital melanocytic nevus syndrome.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 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
Congenital melanocytic nevus (CMN) syndrome is a rare, non-familial neural ectodermal dysplasia characterized by CMN combined with extracutaneous abnormalities, predominantly involving the central nervous system (CNS). The pathogenesis of CMN syndrome is thought to result from early post-zygotic somatic mutations. CNS melanosis frequently affects the anterior temporal lobes, brainstem, cerebellum, and cerebral cortex. Magnetic resonance imaging typically demonstrates T1 hyperintensity associated with CNS melanosis, while ultrasound often reveals abnormal echogenicity. We report a case of a fetus diagnosed with CMN syndrome, presenting with abnormal echogenicity in the cerebellar and amygdaloid complexes and a posterior fossa cyst. Autopsy identified two melanocytic nevi on the lumbosacral region of the fetus. Reports linking CMN syndrome to fetal intracranial abnormalities remain exceedingly rare.
