Skin Extension by Multiple Incisions (SEMI).
Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
BACKGROUND/
aimThere is a need for a simple and atraumatic technique for wound closure in soft tissue defects. The aim of this study was to evaluate the technique of skin extension by multiple incisions in the healing of soft tissue defects following trauma. PATIENTS AND
methodsThis is a retrospective clinical study on soft tissue defects after trauma. The dimensions of the defects were measured intra-operatively. Exclusion criteria were combined techniques of skin extension by multiple incisions with local flaps or free skin grafts, preoperative numbness, and incomplete data. Complications until wound healing were documented.
resultsOne hundred soft tissue defects were evaluated. Uneventful healing occurred in 81. Minor complications were found in 15, and revision was performed in 4. Sensitivity to touch was normal in all.
conclusionSkin extension by multiple incisions is very easy to learn and can be performed without special instruments. The survival rate of the extended skin is high. Sensitivity to touch and mobility of the skin can be preserved, which results in a very durable nearly normal skin.
