Revisiting Spontaneous Keloids: Aetiology, Genetics and Evidence for a Polygenic Pathogenesis.

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
Keloids are abnormal scars resulting from dysregulated wound healing extending beyond the original injury. While typically triggered by trauma, rare cases of spontaneous keloid formation challenge this paradigm and suggest potential endogenous drivers. This study synthesises all reported cases to date and explores pathogenic mechanisms underlying their diverse etiologies. Special emphasis is placed on syndromic disorders associated with spontaneous keloids, with clinical and genetic data presented to support informed diagnostic and genetic decision-making. A representative case, in which genetic testing and bioinformatic analyses uncovered potential candidate genes consistent with a polygenic model of keloid pathogenesis, is provided to illustrate the clinical relevance and complexity of this condition. The insights discussed may reframe keloid formation as not solely a reactive complication of wound healing, but rather a primary manifestation of polygenic dysregulation within wound healing cascades.
