Association of Fordyce's Granules with hyperlipidemia: A clinical indicator of lipid profile alterations.
Article in Bioinformation, 2025. 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
Fordyce's granules (FG) are ectopic sebaceous glands that are usually localized in the oral mucosa. Hence, we compared 150 patients with FGs and 100 patients without, the results being based on the lipid profile after fasting. Findings showed that the most common sites were the buccal mucosa and higher FGs were found in individuals who were male in the age of 20-40. When the FG presentation was dense (>100 granules), the results depicted in the total cholesterol and LDL were highly altered. FGs can be considered as one of the possible early clinical predictors of hyperlipidemia and cardiovascular risk.
