Successful management of an unusual hypopigmented scar after surgical repair of a unilateral Tessier 7 cleft.
Article in Journal of cutaneous and aesthetic surgery. 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
Tessier No. 7 cleft is the most common atypical craniofacial cleft with an incidence of 1:3000-5642 births. This clinical report describes the successful management of a delayed, unusually hypopigmented postoperative facial scar following the surgical closure of a Tessier 7 cleft using the Pfeiffer wave line incision. In the absence of any other associated systemic lesions, the scar was treated as a localized leucoderma. The scar coloration improved dramatically with the chosen line of conservative medical treatment, and a surgical revision was not required. This report highlights the need for continuous follow up despite seemingly good short-term results. The medical management of the hypopigmented scar will aid fellow practitioners who may face similar dilemmas.
