1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Alopecia, while not life-threatening, significantly impacts mental health, identity, and self-esteem of those afflicted. Current pharmacological and surgical treatments often have side effects and are limited in their ability to regenerate hair follicles (HF). Therefore, effective solutions for alopecia remain elusive. We developed an innovative hair tonic capable of stimulating HF regeneration by harnessing abandoned electric energy generated during human activities, such as the frictional electric field from walking and the electric fields from electronic devices. We devised a convenient, non-volatile, and conductive hair tonic to capture these naturally occurring electric fields. We identified 6-pentyl-α-pyrone (6PP) from
