Autologous platelet-rich fibrin promotes wound healing in cats.
Article in Frontiers in veterinary science, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Street cats commonly present large skin wounds that pose significant challenges in veterinary practice. Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is a second-generation platelet concentrate increasingly used in humans to promote wound healing. Ease of use and clinical success in humans has prompted interest in using PRF in veterinary practice. However, until now, there is no reported study on the use of autologous PRF in feline wound management. This study evaluated the effect of application of autologous PRF in cats with naturally occurring cutaneous wounds. 16 cats with full-thickness cutaneous acute/subacute wounds were randomly allocated to PRF or Control (standard care) groups. Each cat was enrolled for 2 weeks. PRF was prepared according to previously described procedures. PRF was applied on Days 1 and 4 in addition to standard wound care. Wound size was measured using tracing planimetry. Wound surface area was calculated using SketchAndCalc
