Emerging Surgical Therapies for Vitiligo: Tissue vs Cell-Based Approaches.
Review in Clinical, cosmetic and investigational dermatology, 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
Vitiligo is a common dermatologic condition characterized by skin depigmentation. The current spectrum of treatments includes topical and systemic therapies, phototherapy, and surgical options. Recent years have witnessed notable advancements in surgical techniques, which are broadly categorized into tissue grafting and cell transplantation. Tissue grafting methods include follicular unit grafting, suction blister epidermal grafting, and thin split-thickness skin grafts. Cell transplantation techniques involve the use of autologous cultured melanocytes, non-cultured epidermal cell suspensions, and non-cultured cell suspensions from hair follicle outer root sheaths. To enhance surgical efficacy, future studies should aim to uncover the therapeutic mechanisms and identify relevant biomarkers.
