Putting the Formulation Back in Foam: Optimizing Seborrheic Dermatitis Treatment Across Diverse Hair Types.
Article in The Journal of clinical and aesthetic dermatology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Seborrheic dermatitis (SD) is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that commonly involves the scalp, and thus, affects a diverse demographic with varying hair care needs. Current SD treatments are limited based on optimized formulation, efficacy, adverse events, and lack of placebo-controlled trials. A novel roflumilast foam formulation has emerged as a promising therapeutic option optimally designed for use on the scalp and other hair-bearing areas. We conducted a comprehensive assessment of beauty industry standards, confirming the foam formulation's alignment with industry guidelines and exclusion of potentially harmful ingredients. In addition, consultation with an expert dermatologist panel yielded a strong endorsement, underscoring a high level of confidence in prescribing the foam across diverse hair and skin types.
