Follicular unit extraction combined with fractional carbon dioxide laser therapy for post-traumatic eyebrow scar with defects: A prospective and comparative study.
Trial report in Journal of cosmetic dermatology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundEyebrows play a crucial role in the human body. While Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) is a widely utilized and highly effective treatment for typical eyebrow deficiencies, it may not yield satisfactory outcomes for patients with post-traumatic eyebrow scars and defects.
objectiveA prospective comparative clinical study was conducted to explore the treatment outcomes of post-traumatic eyebrow scars accompanied by defects using a combination of ablative fractional CO
methodBetween January 2019 and January 2023, we enrolled 30 patients with post-traumatic eyebrow scars and accompanying eyebrow defects, randomly assigning them to experimental and control groups. Patients in the control group received FUE treatment exclusively, whereas patients in the experimental group underwent CO
resultsPrior to FUE, there were no notable variances in baseline data between the two-patient groups. At 6 and 12 months postoperatively, the follicular survival rate in the experimental group was significantly higher compared to the control group. Additionally, patients in the control group were more prone to experiencing postoperative asymmetry between their eyebrows and developing curly hair.
conclusionFor patients with post-traumatic eyebrow scars accompanied by eyebrow defects, we applied ablative fractional CO
