Article in The Journal of small animal practice, 2026. 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
objectivesThis study aimed to assess the effectiveness of a protocol involving the application of topical products (DOUXO® S3 SEB Shampoo and Mousse; Ceva Santé Animale) containing ophytrium for managing feline keratinisation disorders. MATERIALS AND
methodsNineteen client-owned cats with a history of keratinisation disorders exhibited greasy or dry seborrhoea. Cats were treated with either a shampoo or mousse on day 0 (D0) and subsequently with the mousse every 48 to 72 hours for 3 weeks. Clinical signs were evaluated on D0, D7 and D21 using a modified Skin Seborrheic Index, which measured the percentage of body area affected, scaling, coat greasiness and secondary dermatological signs. Both veterinarians and owners provided subjective evaluations of overall skin condition and product efficacy.
resultsOf the 17 cats that completed the study, SSI scores improved significantly by D7 and D21, with reductions of ≥50% in 82.4% of cats. By D21, the affected body surface had decreased by 92.9%, scaling by 70.5% and greasiness by 68.3%. Veterinarians rated the improvement as satisfactory, good or excellent in 100% of cases. The protocol was deemed effective and practical by 100% and 88.2% of owners, respectively, with 94.1% declaring an improved condition of their cats' skin and coat. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: The ophytrium-containing mousse and shampoo protocol was well tolerated and effective in significantly reducing seborrhoea in cats with keratinisation disorders. High satisfaction levels were reported by both veterinarians and owners, highlighting the protocol's efficacy and practicality.
