Prognostic Value of Wagner Grade and Platelet Level in Diabetics with Infected Foot Ulcers After Antibiotic Therapy.
Article in Infection and drug resistance, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Purpose: The aim of the current study was to investigate factors potentially associated with the healing of infected foot ulcers in patients with diabetes after antimicrobial therapy with drugs selected based on antimicrobial susceptibility testing. Patients and Methods: A retrospective study was conducted to analyze clinical data from 99 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with foot infection admitted to our center from January 2016 to December 2020. Pathogenic characteristics, results of wound discharge testing, and relevant wound surface factors were analyzed. Etiological characteristics and the results of susceptibility testing, wound healing rates, and factors potentially associated with wound healing rates were also analyzed. Results: Baseline data were analyzed via the Conclusion: Wagner grade, essential hypertension, platelet count, Gram negative bacteria, and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio could predict the course of healing of infected foot ulcers in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. When the Wagner grade was 2 and the platelet level was ≤ 200, platelet level was linearly associated with healing outcome, whereby a lower platelet level predicted a worse wound healing outcome.
