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

Abstract
objectiveDFD-29 is a low-dose modified formulation of minocycline 40mg that has demonstrated efficacy and safety in patients with rosacea. We report the effect of DFD-29 on patient-reported assessments of disease severity and quality of life (QoL) from two clinical trials in patients with moderate-to-severe rosacea.
methodsMVOR-1 (NCT05296629) and MVOR-2 (NCT05343455) were 16-week, randomized, double-blind, active- and placebo-controlled Phase III trials that compared the impact of oral DFD-29 (EMROSI, Journey Medical Corporation), doxycycline 40mg, and placebo in adults aged 18 years or older with moderate-to-severe rosacea. Changes in QoL were exploratory endpoints that were evaluated at baseline and Weeks 2, 4, 8, 12, and 16 using the Rosacea-Specific Quality of Life (RosaQoL) questionnaire and the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI).
resultsAmong randomized subjects, 288 completed MVOR-1 (DFD-29, n=117; doxycycline, n=98; placebo, n=73) and 296 completed MVOR-2 (DFD-29, n=115; doxycycline, n=113; placebo, n=68). In both trials, DFD-29 significantly improved QoL versus placebo ( LIMITATIONS: RosaQoL and DLQI were exploratory endpoints.
conclusionThese data suggest that DFD-29 may be useful in improving QoL in patients with moderate-to-severe rosacea.
