A systematic review of procedural treatments for burn scars in children: Evaluating efficacy, safety, standard protocols, average sessions and tolerability based on clinical studies.

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
Managing burn scars in children presents significant challenges. This study investigates effective treatment methods for burn scars, focusing on efficacy, safety, standard protocols and tolerability. Major databases such as PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science were thoroughly searched up to August 2024, emphasizing procedural treatments for burn scars in children. Key data collected included participant demographics, sample sizes, intervention methods, follow-up protocols, treatment effectiveness and reported adverse events. A total of 256 children were assessed, with all procedural treatments yielding satisfactory outcomes. Among the various methods, trapeze-flap plasty and percutaneous collagen induction showed improvements in all patients. In the laser treatment group, which included 161 children, the Vancouver Scar Scale (VSS) score reduction ranged from 55.55% to 76.31%, with outcomes rated as good (24.61%) to excellent (60%). Laser treatment using local anaesthesia proved to be well tolerated by children. Our findings indicate that various methods-including trapeze-flap plasty, percutaneous collagen induction, phototherapy and fractional CO
