Use of Cultivated Epidermal Allograft in Chronic Wounds: A Novel Therapeutic Alternative.
Article in Journal of cutaneous and aesthetic surgery. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Introduction: Chronic wounds represent a frequent cause of consultation for plastic and reconstructive surgeons. The use of epidermal culture stands out because they provide complete epithelialization, adequate aesthetic-functional results, and no morbidity for the patient. Epifast® is a pre-manufactured cultured epidermal allograft derived from the amplification Materials and Methods: A prospective longitudinal multicenter study was carried out in four chronic wound reference centers, which were in charge of plastic and reconstructive surgery services. For a standardized wound bed preparation, the protocol synthesized by the acronym "TIME" was used. At the end of the "TIME" protocol, the pre-fabricated allograft was applied and removed 7 days after its application. Results: A total of 133 patients with diagnosis of chronic wound were included in the study. The median age was 69.3 ± 13.6 years. The most common comorbidity found was diabetes mellitus type 2 in 71.4% of the patients ( Conclusion: Cultured epidermal allograft, combined with a meticulous technique and an adequate selection of patients, represents a safe and effective tool for chronic wounds.
