Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products in Vitiligo; Current Status, Future Prospect, and Approved Treatments.
Article in Cell journal, 2023. 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
Vitiligo is an auto-immune disease, causing depigmentation of skin in 0.2-1.8% of global population. Topical corticosteroids and calcineurin inhibitors are the only treatments with firm evidence of optimal effectiveness with considerable side effects. Phototherapies might not induce serious side effects, although the effectiveness of the method is limited. Advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMPs) are emerging treatment modalities based on correction and replacement of affected genes, damaged tissues or cells in treatment of difficult-to-treat diseases. Due to optimal effectiveness and minimal side effects, ATMPs have recently gained much attention in order to develop new treatments. In this review, the ATMPs for treating vitiligo were along with its clinical success, affordability and cost-effectiveness. Currently, the main ATMP based products using in treatment of vitiligo are non-cultured epidermal cell, melanocytes, and hair follicle melanocytes. These products have shown promising results in the non-responding vitiligo patients. Furthermore, mesenchymal stem cells and multi-lineage differentiating stress enduring cells are other new potential modalities. Recently, Iranian Food and Drug Administration (IR-FDA) authorized the first cell-based product for vitiligo. This product is autologous suspension of keratinocytes and melanocytes. Although ATMPs are efficient and could be cost-effective in long term, the most important obstacle is affordability of them. This could be facilitated by insurance companies and instalments payment programs from manufacturers.
