The Effects of Subacute Sunlight Exposure on Skin Thickness: A Pilot Sonographic Study.
Article in Journal of medical ultrasound. 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
We investigated the effects of sunlight exposure on dermis and skin thickness. High-frequency ultrasound (US) was used to assess changes over 3 weeks of natural sunlight exposure. For intra- and inter-rater reliabilities, repeated dermis/skin thickness measurements on two consecutive days in 11 healthy adult subjects were assessed independently by two physiatrists. In the second part, seven adult volunteers were examined before and after a 3-week seaside vacation to evaluate the effects of subacute sunlight exposure on dermis/skin thickness. Measurements were taken over the forehead, forearm, and umbilicus. Intra-rater intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) were good to excellent (0.871-0.998) for nearly all measurements, except forehead total dermis/skin thicknesses for both raters. Inter-rater ICCs were also good to excellent (0.796-0.995), except for forehead dermis/skin and forearm dermis/skin thicknesses on the 1
