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
Sweat maintains systemic homeostasis in humans. Although sweating disorders may cause multifaceted health problems, therapeutic options for sweat disorders have not yet been established. To gain new insight into the mechanism underlying the regulation of perspiration, we compared eccrine sweat gland transcriptomes from hidrotic and anhidrotic lesions from patients with anhidrosis and found out that olfactory receptors were expressed differentially in anhidrotic and hidrotic eccrine sweat glands. We then confirmed OR51A7 and OR51E2 expression in human eccrine sweat glands by in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry. An alkaline phosphatase-TGFα shedding assay revealed that β-ionone activates G-proteins through OR51A7 or OR51E2. The effect of topically applied β-ionone on sweating was examined with the quantitative sudomotor axon reflex test, which showed that responses to β-ionone differed between sexes. Topical β-ionone attenuated female sweating and augmented male sweating. Taken together, this study suggests that olfactory receptors expressed in eccrine sweat glands may regulate sweating in response to odorous ligands on the basis of sex. These unexpected results indicate that olfactory receptors may modulate sweating and that olfactory receptor modulators may contribute to the management of sweat disorders.
