Genetic Variants Associated with Sensitive Skin: A Genome-Wide Association Study in Korean Women.
Article in Life (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Sensitive skin (SS) is associated with discomfort, including burning, stinging, and itching. These symptoms are often exacerbated by environmental factors and personal care products. In this genome-wide association study (GWAS), we aimed to identify the genetic variants associated with SS in 1690 Korean female participants; 389 and 1301 participants exhibited sensitive and non-sensitive skin, respectively. Using a combination of self-reported questionnaires, patch tests, and sting tests, we selected 115 sensitive and 181 non-sensitive participants for genetic analysis. A GWAS was performed to identify the loci associated with SS. Although none of the single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) met the genome-wide significance threshold, we identified several SNPs with suggestive associations. SNP rs11689992 in the 2q11.3 region increased SS risk by approximately 3.67 times. SNP rs7614738 in the
