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

Vitiligo is a skin disease characterized by the loss of skin melanocytes, featuring the dual pathology of melanocyte damage due to oxidative stress and immune-mediated inflammation, which ultimately classifies it as an autoimmune condition. Sappanone A (SA), isolated from Caesalpinia sappan L., exhibits notable anti-oxidative stress and anti-inflammatory activity in various diseases. However, its potential effects and mechanisms in vitiligo remain uninvestigated. This study was designed to investigate the effects of SA on melanocytes and keratinocytes under oxidative stress and to evaluate its therapeutic potential in the monobenzone-induced vitiligo model. In vitro, SA protected PIG1 cells from H
