THE USE OF TRANEXAMIC ACID IN DERMATOLOGY.
Review in Acta clinica Croatica, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Tranexamic acid is a synthetic derivative of the amino acid lysine, an antifibrinolytic that is primarily used to reduce bleeding in surgery, trauma, and dental procedures. Its anti-inflammatory and anti-angiogenic properties, as well as its ability to suppress melanogenesis have enabled it to be used in dermatology in the treatment of skin conditions such as melasma, acne, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, rosacea and angioedema. Tranexamic acid can be used by various routes of administration including oral, topical and intradermal injection, and in combination with other treatment methods. This review article presents evidence for the effectiveness of tranexamic acid in the treatment of various skin disorders.
