[The skin's own antibiotics. Important features of antimicrobial peptides for clinical practice].
Article in Der Hautarzt; Zeitschrift fur Dermatologie, Venerologie, und verwandte Gebiete, 2014. 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
Despite permanent confrontation with a potentially harmful environment, its own microbiota and the fact that minor injuries occur frequently in everyday life, skin infections are a rare event. A chemical barrier of antimicrobial peptides (AMP), some of them constitutively expressed, others inducible by various stimuli, contributes to the integument's resistance. AMP are evolutionarily old components of the innate immunity which became the focus of interest due to their broad spectrum of activity against microorganisms and the rare occurrence of antimicrobial resistance. These attributes make them promising alternative candidates for future antibiotics. Furthermore various dermatological diseases are associated with an altered expression of these molecules, which might then play a pathogenetic role. In addition to their antimicrobial activity, some AMP have immunomodulatory effects and can promote wound healing, properties which currently are under intensive research.
