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
Objective: The aim of the study is to evaluate the therapeutic effect of hyperbaric oxygen in the treatment of grade III exposed dog bite wounds. Method: Fifty-two patients with grade III dog bite wounds who were seen in the emergency department of our hospital from 2017 to 2021 were selected for this research. The participants were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group, with 26 patients in each group. The experimental group received hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), and the control group received routine treatment. The patients were followed up for three months after the treatment concluded. The wound healing rate, infection rate, and healing time were measured and compared. Results: The cure rate of the experimental group (96.2%) was higher than that of the control group (69.2%). The infection rate in the experimental group (3.8%) was lower than that of the control group (30.8%). The average cure time of the experimental group (9 ± 2.7) was lower than that of the control group (11 ± 3.4). The number of dressing changes in the experimental group (4 ± 3.0) was lower than that of the control group (7.5 ± 3.5), and there was a significant difference between the two groups ( Conclusion: According to the results, HBOT of grade III dog bite wounds can promote wound healing, improve the cure, and reduce the wound infection rate. It should have a primary role in the clinical treatment of these wounds.
