Research progress on the pathogenesis of multiple symmetrical lipomatosis.
Review in Adipocyte, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Multiple symmetric lipomatosis, also known as madelung's disease, is a rare syndrome characterized by the accumulation of multiple symmetric subcutaneous adipose tissues that significantly affect patients' quality of life. Since the aetiology of the disease is still unclear, surgical intervention by doctors based on clinical experience is currently the main treatment. However, the recurrence rate remains high even after surgical intervention. Therefore, studying the pathogenesis of this disease is particularly important for overcoming this challenge. In this paper, we reviewed and summarized recent research results on the pathogenesis of this disease to provide possible research directions and treatment strategies for this disease, but no clear mechanism was identified.'Level of Evidence: Level I, Review Articles'.
