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

There have been various interventions for photoaging skin, such as retinoic acid treatment and laser therapy. However, more precise, secure, and effective technologies and materials were still need to be explored. Cathepsin D (CTSD) repairs the epidermal barrier in chronic photodamaged skin through increasing TGase-1 expression and activity. Cathepsin K (CTSK) affects the metabolism of skin elastic fibers. Therefore, gelatin/alginate composite hydrogel microspheres loaded with CTSD or CTSK were fabricated. The microspheres with an average size of 79.8 ± 30.4 μm were stable in PBS (pH 7.4) for 5 days and then disintegrated
