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

The abnormal regulation of melanin synthesis leads to a wide range of pigmentary disorders. Although various melanin biosynthesis inhibitors have been developed, their efficacy and long-term safety needs to be further improved, and thus the goal of this study is to develop promising natural compound inhibitors of melanin biosynthesis. Here, we obtained aglycone flavonoid extract through the microwave-assisted hydrolysis of glycoside extract from Korean mistletoe in acidic condition. The aglycone extract inhibited tyrosinase activity more efficiently with better antioxidant activity than glycoside extract in vitro. The microwave-assisted aglycone extract of mistletoe was further analyzed for in vivo activity, and the results showed the aglycone extract inhibited both early melanocyte development and melanin synthesis more efficiently in zebrafish embryo in a dose-dependent manner. Our in vivo toxicity assay quantitatively measured cell death in zebrafish embryos and showed that the microwave-assisted aglycone extract of mistletoe had no significant effect on cell death (
