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

Seborrheic alopecia (SA) is one of the most common forms of hair loss with a complex pathogenesis involving multiple etiological factors. Although the scalp microbiome has been implicated in various scalp disorders, its specific role in the development and progression of SA remains incompletely understood. To characterize the scalp microbiome in SA, we performed high-throughput sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene and ITS region on scalp samples from 41 Chinese SA participants before and after a 12-week intervention with a shampoo containing herbal extracts (ginger root,
