1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

This study investigated the efficacy of Omega-7 isolated from the sea buckthorn oil (Polyvit Co., Ltd, Gangar Holding, Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia) in ovine burn wound healing models. In vitro, proliferation (colony-forming rate) and migration (scratch) assays using cultured primary ovine keratinocytes were performed with or without 0.025% and 0.08% Omega-7, respectively. The colony-forming rate of keratinocytes in the Omega-7 group at 72 and 96 h were significantly higher than in the control (P < 0.05). The percentage of closure in scratch assay in the Omega-7 group was significantly higher than in the control at 17 h (P < 0.05). In vivo, efficacy of 4% Omega-7 isolated from buckthorn oil was assessed at 7 and 14 days in grafted ovine burn and donor site wounds. Telomerase activity, keratinocyte growth factor, and wound nitrotyrosine levels were measured at day 14. Grafted sites: Un-epithelialized raw surface area was significantly lower and blood flow was significantly higher in the Omega-7-treated sites than in control sites at 7 and 14 days (P < 0.05). Telomerase activity and levels of keratinocyte growth factors were significantly higher in the Omega-7-treated sites after 14 days compared to those of control (P < 0.05). The wound 3-nitrotyrosine levels were significantly reduced by Omega-7. Donor sites: the complete epithelialization time was significantly shorter and blood flow at day 7 was significantly higher in the Omega-7-treated sites compared to control sites (P < 0.05). In summary, topical application of Omega-7 accelerates healing of both grafted burn and donor site wounds. Omega-7 should be considered as a cost-efficient and effective supplement therapy for burn wound healing.
