Review in Der Hautarzt; Zeitschrift fur Dermatologie, Venerologie, und verwandte Gebiete, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Venous leg ulcers are the most severe complication of chronic venous insufficiency. Based on the pathogenesis and the clinical evidence, the first step in treating a venous leg ulcer should be the treatment of the venous insufficiency. According to the guidelines of the German Society of Phlebology, several methods are available: the surgical or interventional therapy of varicosities, the stenting of stenotic pelvic veins in a post-thrombotic syndrome, direct surgical intervention at the ulcer as excision, debridement or fasciotomy. In the case of an arthrogenic venous stasis syndrome, physical therapy can be helpful. Additionally wound dressings, medicinal therapy and reduction of pain are relevant.There is a good level of evidence only for sufficient compression therapy and elimination of varicosities by surgery or sclerotherapy.
