A diabetic foot wound healing assessment tool: A scoping review.
Article in Heliyon, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Background: Indonesia faces a challenge in controlling the burden of diabetic foot ulcers, which necessitates a nursing care management approach to optimize the healing of complications by accurately monitoring wound healing progress using wound assessment tools. Methods: This literature review, which is part of a scoping study framework, searched electronic databases including PubMed, ScienceDirect, EBSCOhost, and Google Scholar to find papers relevant to the Indonesian context. Five papers were chosen from a total of 463 papers discovered. Results: The diabetic foot ulcer wound assessment tools DFUAS (diabetic foot ulcer assessment scale), DMIST (deep, maceration, infection, size, and tunneling), and MUNGS (maceration, undermining, necrotic, granulation, and symptoms/signs) were identified in the literature review. For leg ulcers, LUMT (leg ulcer measurement tool) and RESVECH 2.0 (Results Expected from Chronic Wound Healing Assessment) were used. DMIST, DFUAS, and MUNGS are used to predict healed and non-healing wounds. LUMT determines the evaluation and documentation of leg ulcers, and RESVECH 2.0 is designed to shorten the duration of chronic wound occurrence. The psychometric properties of the DMIST scale were identified, including reliability, validity, and responsiveness. Conclusions: Five tools for assessing chronic wounds were identified. The predictive validity and responsiveness of the DMIST tool were supported by a sufficient rating based on evidence quality. This scoping review provides an overview of the measurement properties of available assessment tools for diabetic foot ulcers.
