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

Micro-needling mesotherapy is one of the increasingly popular treatments in dermatology clinics due to its wide range of effects on the skin. During the procedure, "micro-channels" are created in the epidermis, which remain open for a short period, allowing for the deeper delivery of selected active substances tailored to the skin's needs. In addition, micro-needling induces micro-injuries that stimulate the skin's repair processes, which are essential for tissue regeneration. The aim of the review is to create a practical guide for applying this method in clinical practice. An extensive review of the literature from the past 10 years was conducted using the PubMed database. The database was searched using the following keywords: "micro-needling", "micro-needle", "percutaneous collagen induction", and "dermaroller". The article is based on previously conducted studies and does not include any new research involving humans or animals.
