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

Atopic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder characterized by persistent inflammation and severe pruritus. Current anti-inflammatory agents carry risks of long-term adverse effects, while antihistamines provide limited relief of pruritus. Protease-activated receptor 2 (PAR2) has emerged as a critical mediator of both inflammation and pruritus, representing a promising therapeutic target. In this study, we investigated the therapeutic potential of punicalagin (PCG), a potent PAR2 antagonist, in atopic dermatitis. PCG fully and potently inhibited trypsin-induced PAR2 activation in HaCaT cells with an IC
