Integrating Psychodermatology and Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy in Various Dermatological Conditions: A Narrative Review.
Review in Cureus, 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
Traditional dermatological care often prioritizes visible symptoms, while under-recognizing psychological distress and overlooking emerging regenerative therapies. This narrative review examines two adjunctive approaches: psychodermatology, which addresses the bidirectional relationship between psychological health and skin disease, and platelet-rich plasma (PRP), a minimally invasive regenerative treatment with demonstrated efficacy in acne scarring, alopecia, melasma, vitiligo, and wounds through growth factor-mediated repair. Psychodermatology, underpinned by the neuro-immuno-cutaneous system (NICS), highlights how psychological stress can exacerbate dermatological disease and impair quality of life (QoL). The mechanisms and clinical applications of both modalities are explored, alongside their potential to enhance patient-centered care in chronic skin conditions (CSCs). Integrating PRP and psychodermatology into practice may improve both clinical outcomes and QoL, highlighting the need for multidisciplinary, patient-centered care.
