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

objectiveTo investigate the efficacy of recombinant human basic fibroblast growth factor (rh-bFGF) combined with local application of insulin (INS) in diabetic patients with deep II degree burns, and to analyze the changes in pain and healing.

methodsSeventy-eight diabetic patients with deep II degree burns treated in our hospital were divided into the observation group (n=39) for combination therapy of rh-bFGF and local INS, and the control group (n=39) for rh-bFGF alone. The two groups were compared regarding treatment effect, wound healing time, pain degree (Visual Analogue Scale, VAS), wound exudate rate, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), as well as adverse reactions.

resultsCompared with the control group, the total clinical effective rate was evidently higher in the observation group (P<0.05). The wound healing time was shorter and the VAS score was lower in the observation group as compared to the control group (both P<0.05). The observation group showed significantly lower wound exudate rate and higher HIF-1α and VEGF protein levels in wound tissue than the control group (all P<0.05). No adverse reactions such as abnormalities in blood routine and hepatorenal function were observed in the two groups during treatment.

conclusionsrh-bFGF combined with local application of INS is markedly effective in diabetic patients with deep II degree burns. It can relieve pain and shorten healing time, with low wound exudate rate and high safety profile.
