1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Porcine models are frequently used for burn healing studies; however, factors including anatomic location and lack of standardised wound methods can impact the interpretation of wound data. The objectives of this study are to examine the influence of anatomical locations on the uniformity of burn creation and healing in porcine burn models. To optimise burn parameters on dorsal and ventral surfaces, ex vivo and in situ euthanized animals were first used to examine the location-dependence of the burn depth and contact time relationship. The location-dependent healing in vivo was then examined using burn and excisional wounds at dorsal, ventral, caudal and cranial locations. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and H&E were used to assess burn depth and wound re-epithelialization. We found that burn depth on the ventral skin was significantly deeper than that of the dorsal skin at identical thermal conditions. Compared with burns created ex vivo, burns created in situ immediately post-mortem were significantly deeper in the ventral location. In live animals, 2 out of 12 burn wounds were fully re-epithelialized after 14 days in contrast to complete re-epithelialization of all excisional wounds. Among the burn wounds, those at the cranial-dorsal site exhibited faster healing than at the caudal-dorsal site. This study showed that anatomical location is an important consideration for the consistency of burn depth creation and healing. These data support symmetric localization of treatment and control for comparative assessment of burn healing in porcine models to prevent misinterpretation of results and increase the translatability of findings to humans.
