A Comparative Cross-Sectional Study of Hair Density and Hair Shaft Diameter of Different Severities of Anterior Scalp Marginal Traction Alopecia in Women.
Article in Skin appendage disorders, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Hair density (HD) studies of marginal traction alopecia (MTA) are few. We aimed to document the HD/cm Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study of 401 women over a 9-month period in 2023. The severity of AMTA was scored using the marginal traction alopecia severity score. Phototrichoscopic evaluation of HD/cm Results: The HD/cm Conclusion: Anterior scalp marginal alopecia results in a significant reduction of HD, hair shaft diameter, and number of hair strands. Preventative education on hair care practices and hair styles is advocated.
