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
Flaps are the workhorse reconstructive options for management of defects for oral malignancy. Superficial defects are traditionally managed with skin grafting or healing by secondary intention, each of which have its own problems. We would like to share our experience of use of dermal template for superficial intra oral defects related to oral malignancy. Patients with cancerous and pre-cancerous lesions which resulted in defects involving mucosa and superficial muscles were included in the study. All the patients were managed with Matriderm 2 mm dermal template without the use of skin graft/ flap. 7 patients in the period of 6 months with superficial defects were managed with Matriderm alone. Two patients had lesions on the tongue while five had it on Buccal mucosa. None of these patients had post operative pain, contracture or trismus. Speech and swallowing at 6 month average follow up is normal. Dermal Substitutes are effective method of management of superficial intra oral defects with no donor area morbidity.
