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: Tissue reinforcement techniques with porcine acellular dermal matrices (ADMs) have been widely adopted as standard care in treating capsular contracture. However, the application of alternative xenograft or mesh materials has not been widely studied. Objectives: To examine the efficacy of OviTex PRS Reinforced Tissue Matrix (Resorbable) (TELA Bio, Malvern, PA), a hybrid ovine-reinforced mesh, in comparison with STRATTICE Reconstructive Tissue Matrix (Allergan, Irvine, CA), in patients with advanced capsular contracture. Methods: A retrospective review was conducted on patients who underwent breast revision surgery for Baker Grade III or IV capsular contracture. Patient data were reviewed for outcomes, complications, cost, and postoperative incidence of recurrent capsular contracture after treatment with each specific mesh. Results: Fifty-nine of 89 breasts (66.3%) were treated with OviTex and 30 (33.7%) were treated with STRATTICE. All patients experienced a reduction in Baker grades. In patients treated with OviTex, 96.6% ( Conclusions: OviTex may be successfully utilized to treat capsular contracture. Patient outcomes may be superior to STRATTICE in recurrent capsular contracture, particularly when a previous ADM had been utilized. Cost data show improved savings with the use of OviTex compared with STRATTICE. Level of Evidence 3:
