Epigenetic Modifications in Vitiligo.
Review in Clinical reviews in allergy & immunology, 2025. 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
Vitiligo is an autoimmune depigmenting skin disorder and can affect the mental health of the patients. Current research suggests that the development of vitiligo involves a combination of genetic susceptibility, immune imbalance, and oxidative stress. However, its pathogenesis has not been fully elucidated. Epigenetic modification has gained increasing attention as an emerging way to regulate gene expression at the transcriptional or post-transcriptional level. Currently known modes of epigenetic modification include the regulation of non-coding RNAs, DNA methylation, and histone modification. Studies suggest they play important roles in tumors, immune disorders, and inflammatory diseases. In recent years, the value of epigenetics in the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of vitiligo has been explored. They showed the potential to serve as biomarkers and play a therapeutic role. In this review, we summarize the epigenetic modification mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of vitiligo, including physiological processes such as immune homeostasis, melanocyte survival, cell adhesion and migration, and metabolism. This will help us fully understand the progress of epigenetic research in vitiligo and lay the foundation for targeted therapeutic-related research.
