Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Reconstructive Urology Wounds: A Case Series.
Article in Research and reports in urology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
introductionHyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has been applied to urological wound healing because it reduces inflammation, facilitates angiogenesis through endothelial proliferation, stimulates fibroblast, lymphocyte, and macrophage activity, and exerts bactericidal effects. Thus, we present a case series of reconstructive urology wounds treated adjunctively with HBOT. CASE REPORT: Here, we present the cases of eight patients with urology wounds who underwent different forms of surgical reconstruction. Three patients received penile shaft silicone fluid injection with repeated infection, successful excision of a siliconoma mass, and defect closure with a full-thickness skin graft. One patient had hypospadias and multiple post-closure fistulae. Two patients had bilateral keystone flaps (post total penectomy, orchidectomy, perineotomy, and penile tumors) closed with a split-thickness skin graft (STSG). Two patients had Fournier's gangrene in their genital area, for which the wound was debrided and then closed with a STSG. All patients received HBOT after surgery with satisfying results.
conclusionHBOT promotes wound healing and improves graft integration in patients undergoing urological reconstructive surgery.
