1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Skin conditions are a common health concern faced by patients of all ages. For thousands of years, plants have been used to treat various skin conditions, including acne, vitiligo, and psoriasis, to name a few. Today, with increasing patient preference for natural therapies, modern medicine is now more than ever incorporating age-old knowledge of herbal remedies useful in treating skin conditions into modern-day treatments. This review covers various plant-derived therapeutics (polyphenon E [sincatechins], psoralen, salicylic acid, anthralin, podophyllotoxin, and Filsuvez [birch triterpenes, oleogel-S10]) that have demonstrated scientific evidence of clinical efficacy for dermatologic disorders. The discovery, composition, history of use, and current uses in dermatology are summarized for each botanical ingredient.
