Article in Health science reports, 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
Background and Aims: Previous research investigated the connection between lichen planus (LP) and thyroid disorders due to their autoimmune characteristics; however, the correlation remains unclear. This study investigates the relationship between thyroid disorders and specific subtypes of LP, particularly cutaneous lichen planus (CLP) and lichen planopilaris (LPP), to determine the need for thyroid screening in LP patients. Methods: This case-control study at Razi Hospital's skin clinic (2023-2024) involved 70 LP patients and 70 controls. A dermatologist confirmed the diagnosis via clinical evaluation and biopsy. Medical histories, medication, and BMI were collected. Serological tests for thyroid disorders were conducted, and patients were categorized accordingly. Data analysis was performed using SPSS version 22. Results: The study shows a significant link between LP and thyroid disorders ( Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between LP and thyroid disorders, particularly hypothyroidism. These findings advocate for regular thyroid function monitoring in LP patients to facilitate early detection and management of thyroid issues.
