Human amniotic membrane dressing for the treatment of an infected wound due to an entero-cutaneous fistula: Case report.
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03864939 (Randomized Pilot Study to Improve Postprostatectomy Incontinence and Potency by Application of Dried Human Amnion Graft), which is not on this map. Cited by 13 papers.
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.

Abstract
introductionInfected wounds are difficult to treat and there are no standardized protocols. PRESENTATION OF CASE: We report a case of infected postoperative wound and entero-cutaneous fistula in a 83 years-old woman. An innovative treatment protocol for Human amniotic membrane (HAM)-assisted dressing of infected wound as the Idea Stage following the IDEAL recommendations is presented. The development of amnion preparation and the involved treatment steps are described. No adverse events and no graft rejection have been detected. DISCUSSION: Favorable results confirm the technical simplicity, safety and efficacy of this procedure. HAM has been shown to promote wound healing and to have antibacterial characteristics, which was supported by the presented case.
conclusionWe are able to report a successful treatment of an infected wound caused by entero-cutaneous fistula with HAM dressing. Following the IDEAL recommendations, consecutive prospective cohort trials are justified.
