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: Although purse-string skin closure (PSC) is an effective method for stoma closure considering wound infection, the period for scarring will be prolonged. The aim of this study was to assess whether negative-pressure wound therapy (NPWT) can reduce the wound-scarring period for PSC after stoma closure. Methods: Patients who underwent stoma closure between January 2015 and August 2020 at our department were retrospectively assessed. Patients in the control group received only PSC, and patients in the NPWT group received both PSC and NPWT using the VAC Results: Of the 53 patients included in this study, 21 had their stoma closed by PSC and 32 had their stoma closed by PSC plus NPWT. No significant differences were observed in patient characteristics or peri-operative states. The RR in the NPWT group was significantly smaller than that in the PSC group at 7 postoperative days (p=0.04). There was no difference in scarring period between the two groups (p=0.11).The rates of postoperative wound-related complications were similar in the two groups (control group: 4 (19%), NPWT group: 7 (21.9%), p=1.0). Conclusions: Our study suggests that PSC plus NPWT might be more effective for wound healing after stoma closure than only PSC.
