Considering Sun Safety Policies in the United States.
Review in The Yale journal of biology and medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
As they are collectively the most common malignancies, the personal and systemic burden of skin cancers represent a significant public health concern in the United States. Ultraviolet radiation from the sun as well as from artificial sources such as tanning beds is a carcinogen well-known to increase the risk of developing skin cancer in individuals. Public health policies can help mitigate these risks. In this perspectives article, we review sunscreen and sunglasses standards, tanning bed utilization, and workplace sun protection guidelines in the US and provide focused examples for improvement from Australia and the United Kingdom where skin cancer is a well-documented public health concern. These comparative examples can inform interventions in the US that have the potential to modify exposure to risk factors associated with skin cancer.
