Cantharidin-Induced Skin Blister as an In Vivo Model of Inflammation.
Article in Current protocols, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The cantharidin-induced skin blister is a simple model for investigating cell migration and inflammatory mediator production at a site of inflammation. Application of cantharidin solution to the ear pinna results in formation of a blister with cell influx and induction of inflammatory mediators at the skin site, as well as local swelling of the ear pinna. The model can be used for investigating anti-inflammatory compounds, such as dexamethasone, and for preclinical drug discovery research, especially in areas where neutrophilic inflammation plays a role in disease pathophysiology. The cantharidin blister model is one of very few translational models described in humans, and the mechanism of inflammation induction is comparable in mice and man. In human studies, the cantharidin blister assay has been used to assess the effects of potential new therapies in early-stage clinical studies. © 2021 Novartis AG.
