Dermatoscopic Features of Hyperpigmented Dermatoses.
Review in Clinical, cosmetic and investigational dermatology, 2026. 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
In recent years, dermatoscopy has emerged as a valuable adjunctive tool for the diagnosis of various cutaneous disorders. Initially developed for the evaluation of melanocytic lesions, this non-invasive technique has since demonstrated significant utility in the assessment of non-melanocytic hyperpigmented dermatoses. This review provides an up-to-date and practical overview of the dermatoscopic manifestations of common non-melanocytic hyperpigmented conditions, including melasma, nevus of Ota, freckles, lentigines, solar lentigines, seborrheic keratosis, porokeratosis, acquired dermal macular hyperpigmentation, lichen planus-like keratosis, pigmented actinic keratosis, pigmented Bowen's disease, basal cell carcinoma, and acanthosis nigricans. Many of these hyperpigmented disorders exhibit distinct and characteristic dermatoscopic features. Given the clinical diagnostic challenges posed by these conditions and their significant psychological impact on patients, dermatoscopy offers a complementary approach to enhance the accuracy of evaluation and differential diagnosis.
