Absorption and reduced scattering coefficients in epidermis and dermis from a Swedish cohort study.
Article in Journal of biomedical optics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Significance: Knowledge of optical properties is important to accurately model light propagation in tissue, but Aim: The aim of our study was to present Approach: Diffuse reflectance spectra (475 to 850 nm) at 0.4 and 1.2 mm source-detector separations were analyzed using an inverse Monte Carlo method. The model had one epidermis layer with variable thicknesses and melanin-related absorptions and two dermis layers with varying hemoglobin concentrations and equal oxygen saturations. The reduced scattering coefficient was equal across all layers. Results: Median absorption coefficients ( Conclusions: Reference material for skin optical properties is presented.
