Effect of a topical traditional Chinese herbal medicine on skin microbiota in mouse model of atopic dermatitis.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. 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
This study aims to explore the impact of the herbal ointment Chushi Zhiyang Ruangao (CSZYRG) on the skin's microecological environment in a mouse model of atopic dermatitis (AD) and to understand the underlying mechanisms involved. The AD model was established in C57 mice using calpolitol (a hypocalcemic analog of vitamin D3; MC903). Medication-free matrix ointment, CSZYRG, and mometasone furoate cream (positive control group) were applied to the injured areas. The skin lesions of AD model mice were photographed. Skin lesions were applied for the hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining to observe any pathological changes. Serum immunoglobulin IgE was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The changes in the expression of inflammation-related factors TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in mice were detected using ELISA and qRT-PCR. Skin microflora samples were taken for 16S rDNA sequencing and analyzed for changes in the skin flora diversity, abundance, and dominant flora in mice. It was concluded that CSZYRG effectively alleviates skin lesions, serum IgE, and levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in AD model mice. However, CSZYRG did not affect the skin microbial diversity of AD model mice but could exert an effect on the skin microbial community in AD mice and the relative abundance of the dominant microflora. CSZYRG may play a therapeutic role in AD by affecting the skin microbial community and relative abundance of dominant microflora in AD mice.
