Evaluation of the effect of a gel made with amniotic fluid formulation on the healing of diabetic foot ulcers: A triple-blind clinical trial.
Trial report in Frontiers in public health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a gel made with amniotic fluid (AF) formulation on wound healing in diabetic foot ulcers. Methods: This clinical trial was performed on 92 type 2 diabetic patients referring to the Diabetes Clinic of Golestan Hospital of Ahvaz, southwest of Iran in 2019-2020. Patients were randomly divided into three groups of intervention and one placebo group. The wounds of the three intervention groups were dressed with gauze impregnated with an AF formulation gel while wounds of the control group were dressed with plain gauze without any topical agent. Chi-square tests and generalized estimating equations (GEE) with a significance level of 0.05 were used to analyze the data. Results: At the end of the eighth week of intervention, there was a statistically significant difference among the four groups in terms of wound grade, wound color, condition of the tissues surrounding the wound, the overall condition of the wound, and the duration of wound healing ( Conclusions: Based on our experience with the patients in the present study, we believe that AF represents a useful and safe option for the treatment of chronic diabetic foot ulcers.
