Effect of lidocaine on the safety of postoperative skin reconstruction after malignant melanoma resection.
Article in Experimental and therapeutic medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Malignant melanoma is a type of skin cancer with high morbidity and mortality. Therapeutic strategies should be individualized in order to increase the survival rate. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of lidocaine on skin healing and immune function after operation of patients with melanoma. Sixty patients with melanoma were selected from those treated in Bishan Hospital between August 2014 and August 2016. The patients were randomly divided into lidocaine group and control group. Lidocaine group was locally treated with an intradermic injection of 2% lidocaine solution in dose of 1.5 mg/kg and the control group received the same quantity of saline solution. In the lidocaine group, the rates of skin temperature, drug reaction, healing and infection were higher than the corresponding rates in the C group. The local application of lidocaine can promote wound healing to a certain extent, reduce pain, and promote postoperative skin reconstruction.
