Skin Perfusion Pressure and Wound Closure Time in Lower Extremity Wounds.
Article in The journal of the American College of Clinical Wound Specialists, 2017. 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
introductionPeripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) affects approximately 8 million patients in the United States. We investigate the relationship of Skin Perfusion Pressure (SPP) and wound closure time in lower extremity wounds.
methodsWe conducted a retrospective study of 1125 lower extremity wounds in 998 patients between June 2006 and October 2014 in our wound clinic. We analyzed the relationship between SPPand wound closure time. SPP was measured using a Laser Doppler instrument.
resultsPatients with SPP values over 30 mmHg had shorter wound closure times, while patients with SPP values below 30 mmHg had a significantly longer wound closure time. Diabetic patients took longer to achieve wound closure compared to non-diabetics. No significant relationship was observed between SPP and wound closure time in relation to age or gender.
conclusionSPP is a useful tool in estimating time to wound closure and assessing the necessity of vascular interventions in lower extremity wounds.
