This data extraction table contains detailed information extracted from studies included in the systematic review titled "Acne-Associated Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation: A Systematic Review of Treatments and Guidelines for Clinicians." The table includes key study characteristics, patient characteristics, treatment information, and outcomes collected from relevant studies assessing treatments for Acne-Associated Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (AAPIH).
A systematic review was conducted in line with PRISMA guidelines and registered with PROSPERO (CRD420251041782). MEDLINE and Embase databases were searched for studies published between January 1999 and December 2024. Studies assessing treatments for AAPIH were selected based on predefined eligibility criteria using the PICOS framework. Levels of evidence were assessed, and a risk of bias analysis was conducted. Due to heterogeneity in treatment outcomes, a descriptive analysis was performed.
This table serves as a supplementary resource for the systematic review, providing comprehensive insight into the methodologies, patient demographics, treatment protocols, and clinical outcomes observed across the included studies.
