Dysfunctional Wound Healing in Diabetic Foot Ulcers: New Crossroads.
Review in Current diabetes reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 160 papers, 4 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
purpose of reviewDiabetic foot ulcerations (DFU) affect 25% of patients with diabetes mellitus during their lifetime and constitute a major health problem as they are often recalcitrant to healing due to a constellation of both intrinsic and extrinsic factors. The purpose of this review is to (1) detail the current mechanistic understanding of DFU formation and (2) highlight future therapeutic targets. RECENT
findingsFrom a molecular perspective, DFUs exhibit a chronic inflammatory predisposition. In addition, increased local hypoxic conditions and impaired cellular responses to hypoxia are pathogenic factors that contribute to delayed wound healing. Finally, recent evidence suggests a role for epigenetic alterations, including microRNAs, in delayed DFU healing due to the complex interplay between genes and the environment. In this regard, notable progress has been made in the molecular and genetic understanding of DFU formation. However, further studies are needed to translate preclinical investigations into clinical therapies.
