Comparison of hyaluronic acid, hypochlorous acid, and flurbiprofen on postoperative morbidity in palatal donor area: a randomized controlled clinical trial.
Trial report in Clinical oral investigations, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07458685 (Efficacy of Cross-linked Hyaluronic Acid in Improving Healing After Free Gingival Graft), which is not on this map. Cited by 21 papers, 3 of them syntheses 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

Abstract
objectiveThis study aims to evaluate the effects of topical hyaluronic acid (HA), hypochlorous acid (HOCl), and flurbiprofen on postoperative morbidity of palatal donor sites after free gingival graft (FGG) surgery. MATERIALS AND
methodsSixty patients requiring FGG were randomly assigned into four groups: control, HA gel (600 mg/100 g high molecular weight hyaluronic acid), HOCl spray (170-200 ppm, ph7.1), flurbiprofen spray (0.075gr flurbiprofen). Topical agents were applied for 14 days, according to groups. Patients were followed for 28 days. Palatal healing was assessed with the Laundry wound healing index (WHI). Complete epithelization (CE) was evaluated with photographs and H
resultsHA provided better WHI values on the 7
conclusionsHA exhibits a positive impact on the epithelization of palatal wound healing and color matching. HOCl and flurbiprofen provided less pain; however, they might have negative effects on palatal wound healing. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: As a result of obtaining free gingival grafts from palatal tissue for mucogingival surgical procedures, secondary wound healing of the donor area occurs. This wound in the palatal region can cause discomfort and pain every time patients use their mouths. The use of HA can reduce postoperative complications by accelerating wound healing and reducing pain. The topical use of flurbiprofen and HOCl can reduce patients' pain.
