Effects of topical isoxsuprine ointment on imiquimod-induced psoriasiform skin inflammation in mice.
Article in Naunyn-Schmiedeberg's archives of pharmacology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
This study assesses the potential positive impact of a 0.05% isoxsuprine ointment on psoriasiform skin inflammation generated by imiquimod in mouse models. Thirty-two male albino mice were allocated into four groups: the control group (which received topical emollients twice daily for 16 days), the induction group (which received imiquimod cream (5%) for 8 days, twice daily followed by petrolatum gel (15%) for another 8 days), and the other two groups, which received imiquimod cream (5%) for 8 days followed by either clobetasol ointment (0.05%) or isoxsuprine ointment (0.05%) twice daily for an additional 8 days. At the end of the experiment, mice were sacrificed by ethical standards, and levels of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-17A, IL-23, and VEGF were measured; PASI and Backer's score were examined, in addition to the histopathology of skin tissue. Each clobetasol and isoxsuprine group displayed a significant reduction in tissue homogenate levels of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-17A, IL-23, and VEGF, besides increments in IL-10 compared to the induction group. Some markers (IL-17A, IL23, and VEGF) showed no significant difference between clobetasol and the isoxsuprine group. In contrast, the other markers (TNF-α, IL6, and IL10) showed significant differences between clobetasol and isoxsuprine groups. Isoxsuprine ointment showed comparable efficacy to clobetasol ointment in treating imiquimod-induced psoriasiform skin inflammation in mice models, probably due to its possible effect of anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory activities.
