Combination of LED illumination and daylight photodynamic therapy for the treatment of actinic keratosis in solid organ transplant recipients: a prospective, randomized, comparative, intra-patient study.

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
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesSolid organ transplant recipients have an increased risk of developing actinic keratosis. Recent studies show greater effectiveness when combining daylight photodynamic therapy with a posterior LED illumination for their treatment in immunocompetent patients. The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of combining daylight photodynamic therapy and LED illumination versus daylight photodynamic therapy alone for the treatment of actinic keratosis in solid organ transplant recipients. PATIENTS AND
methodsThis randomized intra-patient study was conducted at University of Navarra Clinic. Solid organ transplant recipients with two 25 cm
resultsThirteen patients with a total of 169 AKs were recruited. At 12 weeks post-treatment, the area treated with daylight and conventional photodynamic therapy showed a greater reduction in actinic keratoses (79.55% vs. 65.43%, p < 0.05).
conclusionsOur results suggest greater effectiveness of combining daylight photodynamic therapy with LED illumination compared to daylight photodynamic therapy alone for the treatment of actinic keratosis in solid organ transplant recipients.
