Poly-D,L-Lactic Acid Filler Attenuates Ultraviolet B-Induced Skin Pigmentation by Reducing Destruction of the Basement Membrane.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Poly-D,L-lactic acid (PDLLA) filler, which increases volume and collagen synthesis, is used for skin rejuvenation. PDLLA filler also increases M2 macrophages and IL-10. Ultraviolet (UV) radiation induces dermal hyperpigmentation by disrupting the basement membrane (BM), allowing melanin to move into the dermis. Therefore, using UV-irradiated macrophages and animal skin, we determined whether PDLLA filler decreased M1 macrophages and skin inflammation, thereby reducing BM destruction and dermal hyperpigmentation. UV radiation increased the M1 macrophage marker CD86 and TNF-α expression, which was inhibited by the treatment of macrophages with PDLLA. In fibroblasts treated with conditioned medium from UV-irradiated macrophages, NF-κB activity, NLRP3 inflammasome components (NLRP3, ASC, and pro-caspase-1), IL-18, MMP2, and MMP9 increased, but all decreased after PDLLA treatment. Similar to the in vitro study, UV-irradiated mouse skin showed increased CD86, NLRP3, ASC, pro-caspase-1, MMP2, and MMP9, which decreased after PDLLA injection. Disruption of the lamina densa of the BM and dermal pigmentation increased after UV irradiation and decreased after PDLLA injection. In conclusion, PDLLA reduced dermal pigmentation by decreasing BM destruction in UV-irradiated skin. PDLLA has the potential to reduce dermal pigmentation by regenerating the BM.
