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

objectiveAcne is one of the most common skin diseases, especially among teenagers. Many factors were blamed for creating acne including nutrition. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between body mass index, oxygen radical absorption capacity (ORAC), and healthy eating index (HEI), and acne among adolescents. This case-control study was conducted on 57 students with acne and 57 students without acne. Demographic information, food frequency and anthropometric indices were collected. The amount of ORAC was determined by USDA data. The HEI was calculated using HEI-2015 for 9 components. The data were analyzed using SPSS software.

resultsIn this study cross-sectional study, the average weight in the group with and without acne was 62.27 ± 11.50 vs. 59.26 ± 14.33, and there was no significant difference between weight and acne (P = 0.219). Chromium intake in people without acne was significantly higher (P < 0.022). The macronutrient and micronutrient intakes were insignificantly higher in the healthy group. Food group intake was not significantly different between the healthy and sick groups. There was no significant difference in the ORAC (P = 0.814), and the HEI between the two groups with acne and healthy people (P = 0.616). No correlation was found between HEI, and ORAC with acne as well. The findings of this study showed that anthropometric indices, HEI and ORAC had no significant relationship with acne. To have tangible conclusion, further large-scale cohort study is highly recommended.
