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 aging results from a combination of intrinsic factors and exogenous stimuli, leading to changes in the structure and components of the extracellular matrix (including the skin basement membrane), which directly influence the aging process. In vitro models are powerful tools for exploring skin aging and overcoming inter-species differences and ethical issues associated with animal models, thus demonstrating powerful potential in skin aging research and anti-aging drug development. In this review, the advantages and disadvantages of in vitro models are discussed, including 2D monolayer models, 3D static reconstructed human skin models, 3D bioprinting models, organoid models, and Skin-on-Chip models for studying skin aging and anti-aging drug development. Finally, concepts and perspectives for the next-generation skin aging models are proposed. These models are expected to provide innovative tools for investigating the mechanisms of skin aging in depth, as well as skin aging repair and prevention.
