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

The treatment of chronic wounds is usually a major challenge for the involved medical staff. Various different treatment options have to be tested achieving a satisfactory result. In this retrospective case report, we describe successful treatments with hyaluronan acid ester fleece in six patients with chronic wounds of different origins. Furthermore, all patients received compression bandages or compression stockings, two patients were treated additionally with pressure relief devices and all were debrided if necessary. The chronic wounds of five out of the six patients healed completely over a period of 1.5-11 months or only with a minimal residual defect. However, one patient was still resistant to therapy over five months. In summary, the treatment with hyaluronan esters achieved good results especially in patients with complex medical history that makes a successful therapy particularly difficult.
