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
Background: Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) with instillation (NPWTi) is a new treatment for chronic skin ulcers (CSUs), but the choice of perfusate is still investigated. The clinical application of Huoxue Shengji (HXSJ) decoction has been proved to promote the formation of granulation. The formation of fresh granulation, angiogenesis, and proliferation of vascular endothelial cells are closely related. The purpose of this study was to observe the clinical efficacy of NWPT with HXSJ decoction instillation in the treatment of CSUs and to explore the potential mechanism by which HXSJ decoction promotes proliferation of vascular endothelial cells at the cellular level. Methods: In the clinical study, the random number table was used to divide the patients into three groups (patients were numbered by visit time and assigned a random number and grouped by the remainder after the random number was divided by 3, and when the number of patients in one group reached 20, the enrolment of this group is stopped), including NPWT combined with HXSJ decoction instillation (group Results: There was no significant difference in the improvement rate of invasive cavity volume ( Conclusion: HXSJ decoction can enhance the expression of VEGF and VEGFR-2 and promote the proliferation of HUVECs. Treatment with NWPT with HXSJ decoction instillation can further reduce the wound cavity volume; meanwhile, it can promote blood vessel formation in ulcer wounds, thus accelerating the healing of CSUs.
