A debriding gel in the treatment of post-trauma, non-healing lesions.
Article in International journal of burns and trauma, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundTopical desiccation agent (TDA) is an acidic species in a gel with a potent hygroscopic action. When in contact with (water in) biofilm and necrosis, rapid desiccation occurs, with the dehydrated tissues typically sloughing off in 1-3 days. This allows for quick granulation tissue formation which is an essential step for healing by secondary intention or as wound bed preparation for grafting.
methodsA series of nine non-healing, post-trauma lesions on the lower leg were treated with TDA, followed by treatment of the lesion with vaseline gauze.
resultsThe average age of the patients was 77.0 years and the lesions had been in existence for 5.6 months on average. The average size of the lesion was 15.9 cm
conclusionThese data suggest TDA treatment is an effective and efficient way to debride lesions, and to prepare them for healing by secondary intention or for grafting.
