Topical Negative Pressure Wound Dressing and Its Applications in the Hand-A Review of the Literature.
Review in Journal of hand and microsurgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The use of topical negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) has become increasingly popular in the management of complex wounds. There are many theories as to the mechanism of action of NPWT, but the essential components of the various systems remain consistent. There are many attractive potential properties of negative pressure dressings that lend themselves to the management of upper limb injuries. This article explores the technique of negative pressure wound dressing, the theories pertaining to mechanism of action, and the increasingly broad indications described for the use of NPWT in the hand. The literature pertaining to the efficacy of NPWT in general is also discussed.
