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
Introduction: Baumann Skin Type Questionnaire (BSTQ) is a widely used questionnaire, that was designed to determine baseline skin type in dermatology. The self-reported BSTQ, consisting of four parts: oily vs. dry skin, sensitive vs. resistant skin, pigmented vs. non-pigmented skin and wrinkled vs. tight skin, can provide significant guidance for consumers and professionals to select and recommend the most appropriate skin care products and skin care protocols. Aim: Translation and validation of the Polish version of the Baumann Skin Type Questionnaire (BSTQ) - oily vs. dry skin and sensitive vs. resistant skin. Material and methods: Both forward and backward translation of the English version of the BSTQ was performed. The study was conducted on 103 individuals. The respondents completed the questionnaire twice, 1 day after the other. Moreover, the subjects participated in practical classes of facial care cosmetology which allowed for conducting interviews and skin examinations by a cosmetology expert. Results: The Polish version of the BSTQ demonstrated high test-retest reliability (reproducibility) in the dimension assessing oily or dry skin as well as sensitive or resistant skin ( Conclusions: The Polish version of the BSTQ (oily vs. dry skin and sensitive vs. resistant skin) showed high reliability, good internal consistency and high accuracy and consistency. It can be used for assessment of oily or dry skin and sensitive or resistant skin.
