Urinary bladder matrix versus dermal regeneration template for lower extremity wound coverage.
Article in European journal of orthopaedic surgery & traumatology : orthopedie traumatologie, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 3 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
purposeTo compare dermal regenerative template (DRT), with and without split-thickness skin-grafting (STSG), and urinary bladder matrix (UBM) for coverage of lower extremity wounds.
methodsA retrospective review of 56 lower extremity wounds treated with either DRT and STSG (DRT-S) (n = 18), DRT only (n = 17), or UBM only (n = 21). Patient characteristics, comorbidities, American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA) classification, injury characteristics, wound characteristics, use of negative pressure wound therapy, surgical details, postoperative care, and failure of primary wound coverage procedure were documented.
resultsThe DRT group, compared to the DRT-S group, was older [median difference (MD) 17.4 years, 95% confidence interval (CI) 9.1-25.7; p = 0.0008], more diabetic (proportional difference (PD) 54.2%, CI 21.2-76.1%; p = 0.002), had smaller wounds (MD - 91.0 cm
conclusionsDRT and UBM coverage had similar rates of primary wound coverage failure for lower extremity wounds. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Diagnostic, Level III.
