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

Niclosamide is an oral anthelmintic agent and was reported to also have anti-inflammatory effects by suppressing STAT3 signaling pathways. In this study, we investigated the effect of niclosamide on skin inflammatory diseases to determine its potential as a therapeutic drug. We investigated the effects of niclosamide on two models of skin inflammatory diseases: imiquimod -induced psoriasis-like skin inflammation and LL-37-induced rosacea mouse models. Our experimental results showed that niclosamide ameliorated the psoriasis-like skin inflammation and reduced proinflammatory cytokine production in the psoriasis mouse model. Moreover, niclosamide restored the imbalance between IL-17-expressing γδT cells and Tregs in the psoriasis model. Topical application of niclosamide significantly decreased the abundance of IL-17A
