Clinical and Patient-Reported Outcome Measures of Palatal Donor Site Healing Using Polyvinylpyrrolidone-Sodium Hyaluronate Gel as a Dressing Material Following Free Gingival Graft Harvesting: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial.
Trial report in Clinical and experimental dental research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectivesThis study evaluates the efficacy of polyvinylpyrrolidone-sodium hyaluronate (PVP-SH) gel as a dressing material in enhancing both clinical and patient-reported outcomes post-free gingival graft (FGG) harvesting from the hard palate. MATERIAL AND
methodsThis randomized clinical trial included 18 patients and spanned from June 2022 to August 2023. Patients received an FGG procedure to manage a lack of attached gingiva. Following graft harvesting, patients were divided into two groups: the control group, which received Coe-Pak, and the test group, which was treated with PVP-SH gel. The primary outcome measured was complete epithelialization. Secondary outcomes included the Landry healing scale, post-operative pain level, and patient willingness to receive the same treatment again.
resultsThe test group reported significantly lower analgesic use (p < 0.001) and reduced pain severity (p < 0.001) compared to the control group. Furthermore, test group patients indicated a higher level of satisfaction regarding the prospect of retreatment. In contrast, the control group showed significantly slower progress in wound healing and epithelization (p < 0.05) compared to the test group.
conclusionsThe findings of this study suggest that PVP-SH gel is a superior dressing material post-FGG harvesting, yielding improved clinical and patient-reported outcomes relative to Coe-Pak.
