Efficacy of Amniotic and Chorionic Membrane in Facial Wound Healing: A Comparative Study.
Article in Cureus, 2024. 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
Background Advancements in regenerative techniques have been utilized in placental amnion and chorion for a variety of purposes. Their ability to regenerate tissues has led to their usage in tissue engineering, wound healing, and other therapeutic applications. This study aims to evaluate and compare the efficacy of amnion and chorion in facial tissue wound healing. Methodology The study was an observational comparative study conducted in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, involving 20 participants divided into two groups (Group I and Group II). Study groups were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. A dehydrated human amnion/ chorion membrane was applied to the affected site of each group respectively. Its efficacy in wound healing was analyzed in the first, third, seventh day, and second week. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS software (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY). Results Patients treated with amnion membrane showed a decrease in wound size and the wound was completely healed by second week with mean scores of wound sizes of 0.00 whereas the wound remained unhealed by second week with mean of 1.70 to those treated with chorion membrane. Conclusion Amnion showed superior efficacy in wound healing at two-week intervals when compared to the chorion. Hence, this could be used in regenerative medicine as a graft to induce healing in facial wounds.
