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
The skin's moisturizing function declines with age, resulting in skin dryness in around 40% of older people. Various lifestyle habits may affect the skin moisturizing function, however it is not clear which ones are particularly relevant. A cross-sectional study was conducted between September and December 2023, involving individuals aged 65 years and over. Self-administered questionnaires were employed to collect information on lifestyle habits. Stratum corneum hydration (SC hydration), as an indicator of skin hydration, was measured and analyzed using multiple regression. A total of 124 individuals participated in the study, with a mean age of 83.6 years. Daily use of moisturizer (p=0.024) and exercise level (p=0.002) demonstrated significant associations with increased SC hydration. Although not statistically significant, smoking exhibited a trend towards decreased SC hydration (p=0.173). The findings of this study suggest that, among various lifestyle habits, exercise and daily moisturizing contribute to enhanced SC hydration. These results indicate that lifestyle modifications may improve the skin moisturizing function of the elderly.
