1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Rhinophyma is the result of progressive acne rosacea, which results in hypertrophy and fibrosis of sebaceous glands and connective tissues of the nose. The skin soft tissue envelope of the nose becomes bulkier and heavier relative to the underlying structural supportive framework of the nose over time, resulting in nasal airway obstruction and disfigurement that adversely impact quality of life. It is classically taught that rhinophyma is a disease that more commonly affects men, White people, and those in middle age. There are multiple treatment modalities available for rhinophyma aimed at surgical reduction of the overgrown skin soft tissue envelope, including CO
