From ancient Egypt to the dermatologic office: An overview of skin substitutes and modern-day applications in dermatologic surgery.
Article in Health science reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Skin grafting (specifically xenografting) dates back to as early as 1500 before Christ (BC) in the Ebers papyrus, an Egyptian medical papyrus. In 1503, the use of human skin allograft was described in the manuscript of Branca of Sicily, and among the Hindu Tilemaker Caste approximately 2500-3000 years ago, surgeons repaired defects secondary to nose amputations of those who committed adultery and thievery. Over the years, many advancements in skin grafts/substitutes and their applications have propelled the field to focus on better graft survival, contracture prevention, cosmesis, and quality of life. We provide a general overview of skin substitutes (SS) with a particular focus on placental SS and their current applications in dermatologic surgery.
