Implementing differentially pigmented skin models for predicting drug response variability across human ancestries.
Review in Human genomics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Persistent racial disparities in health outcomes have catalyzed legislative reforms and heightened scientific focus recently. However, despite the well-documented properties of skin pigments in binding drug compounds, their impact on therapeutic efficacy and adverse drug responses remains insufficiently explored. This perspective examines the intricate relationships between variation in melanin-based skin pigmentation and pharmacokinetics and -dynamics, highlighting the need for considering diversity in skin pigmentation as a variable to advance the equitability of pharmacological interventions. The article provides guidelines on the selection of New Approach Methods (NAMs) to foster inclusive study designs in preclinical drug development pipelines, leading to an improved level of translatability to the clinic.
