1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Bowenoid papulosis (BP) is a rare human papillomavirus-induced intra-epithelial neoplasia that typically presents as multiple pigmented or erythematous papules in the anogenital region of sexually active young adults. Despite its low malignant potential (<1% risk of progression to invasive squamous cell carcinoma), prompt recognition and management remain essential to mitigate this risk. Dermoscopy can be a valuable noninvasive diagnostic adjunct, aiding differentiation from mimickers like genital warts and pigmented Bowen's disease. However, literature on dermoscopic features of BP remains limited to a few case reports. This case highlights the role of dermoscopy in the early identification of BP and also reviews the dermoscopic features documented in the literature, intending to promote the more frequent use of dermoscopy in its clinical diagnosis.
