Surgical Treatment of Multiple Large Tuberous and Tendinous Xanthoma Secondary to Familial Hypercholesterolaemia: A Case Report.
Article in Clinical, cosmetic and investigational dermatology, 2024. 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
Xanthomas are well-circumscribed skin lesions that are commonly seen in patients with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH). The aim of this report is to present a rare case of multiple large tuberous and tendinous xanthomas. A 17-year-old female patient in this report presented with multiple asymptomatic and papulo-nodular masses in both sides of palms, elbows, buttocks, knees, and Achilles tendons. Surgical removal of the masses was carried out in combination with lipid-lowering therapy. A following up of 3 months showed all wounds were healing well, and no recurrence of masses was observed. Therefore, for patients with xanthomas related with familial hypercholesterolaemia, lipid-lowering therapy has reportedly reduced the size of masses, but surgical treatment may be essential for large xanthomas caused pain or limitation of daily activities.
