Development of a reproducible
Article in Biomedical optics express, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The aim of the current study was to establish animal scar models in a simple and rapid manner by comparing three methods. Wounds were created on the buttocks of Sprague Dawley rats. For Group 1, the initial wound was created by surgical incision. For Groups 2 and 3, a 1470-nm laser was employed to generate dermal burns as the initial wound. The wounds in Groups 1 and 3 were then sutured for three days. After the wound healing, Group 2 generated the largest collagen proportion with abundant collagen type I and significant increases in α-SMA and TGF-β1. The proposed method can be an efficient way to develop rat scar models in a simple manner for evaluating scar treatment.
