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 growing demand for postbariatric body-contouring surgery after massive weight loss goes hand-in-hand with an increase in wound complications. Consequently, surgical reoperation or conservative management is necessary and represents a difficult challenge to healthcare professionals. Moreover, it is well known that postbariatric patients present aberrant wound healing due to multifactorial causes, such as preoperative illness, nutritional deficiencies, and vascular disease. To treat such complex wounds, several methods have been recommended, such as the use of negative pressure wound therapy, tissue-engineered skin substitutes, and collagen-based wound dressings. The case presented here is of a patient with deep wound dehiscence of the inner left thigh, 1 week after a medial thigh lift procedure, successfully managed with Vergenix Flowable Gel, a human recombinant type I collagen produced in plants. After 2 weeks of treatment, wound dehiscence was replaced with granulation tissue, and after 4 weeks, the patient was completely healed, with an acceptable aesthetic outcome of the surgical scar.
