Assessment of Oxidative/Nitrosative Stress and Raftlin in Vitiligo.
Article in Indian journal of dermatology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Background: Vitiligo is a chronic skin disease characterized by white macules on the skin due to loss of melanocytes. Although there are many theories about the etiopathogenesis of the disease, oxidative stress is identified as an important determinant in the etiology of vitiligo. In recent years, Raftlin has been shown to play a role in many inflammatory diseases. Aims: The aim of this study was to compare the patients with vitiligo and the control group to determine both oxidative/nitrosative stress markers and Raftlin levels. Materials and Methods: This study was designed prospectively between September 2017 and April 2018. Twenty-two patients diagnosed with vitiligo and 15 healthy people as the control group were included in the study. Blood samples collected to determine oxidative/nitrosative stress, the antioxidant enzyme, and Raftlin levels were sent to the biochemistry laboratory. Results: In patients with vitiligo, the activities of catalase, superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, and glutathione S transferase were significantly lower than in the control group ( Conclusions: The results of the study support that oxidative stress and nitrosative stress may play a role in the pathogenesis of vitiligo. In addition, the Raftlin level, a new biomarker of inflammatory diseases, was found high in patients with vitiligo.
