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

Lignin-based microcapsules exhibit promising potential among natural sunscreen agents. However, their applications are hindered by poor photostability and biocompatibility of core materials. Here, we optimize the core formulation of lignin microcapsules to improve their stability and biocompatibility. A novel core formulation including four chemical sunscreen actives is encapsulated in enzymatic hydrolysis lignin (EHL) via one-step ultrasonic cavitation. Optimal microcapsules with an average diameter of 383 nm are obtained, and the formulated creams with 10 wt % EHL microcapsules as the sole active ingredient achieve a sun protection factor (SPF) value of 147. Due to the excellent photo and thermal stability of the optimized core formulation, the SPF value of the microcapsule-based sunscreen decreases by only 14.7% after 10 h of UV irradiation, while it has little change under 50 °C. Due to the above advantages and good biocompatibility, the proposed EHL-based microcapsules have better potential in developing natural sunscreen.
