Innovative Modifications in Diamond Umbilicoplasty: Simplified Techniques for Improved Cosmetic Results.
Article in Cureus, 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
Umbilicoplasty is one of the main steps in abdominoplasty procedures. Various techniques of umbilicoplasty are performed by surgeons from diverse backgrounds, all aiming for a naturally appearing umbilicus with minimal scarring. In this report, we present two umbilicoplasty methods practiced at our center. The key steps involved in both techniques include securing the umbilicus in its new position, creating a natural umbilical depth, and preventing visible scarring. These two methods are easily reproducible, time-effective, and consistently yield aesthetically pleasing results. We also discuss alternative umbilicoplasty methods performed in other facilities.
