Eruptive Pruritic Papular Porokeratosis in a 77-Year-Old Male: A Rare Case.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Eruptive pruritic papular porokeratosis (EPPP) is a rare inflammatory variant of disseminated superficial porokeratosis characterized by the sudden onset of pruritic papules, primarily affecting the extremities and trunk. We present the case of a 77-year-old male who developed EPPP without any underlying malignancy or immunosuppression. Histopathology confirmed EPPP, and the patient underwent treatment with topical lovastatin 2% ointment, followed by topical calcipotriene. This report highlights the clinical presentation, diagnostic workup, therapeutic interventions, and emerging insights into the management of this uncommon condition.
