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
Even today, the reduction of complications following breast implant surgery together with the enhancement of implant integration and performance through the modulation of the foreign body response (FBR), remains a fundamental challenge in the field of plastic surgery. Therefore, tailoring the material's physical characteristics to modulate FBR can represent an effective approach in implantology. While polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) patterning on 2D substrates is a relatively established and available procedure, micropatterning multiscaled biointerfaces on a controlled large area has been more challenging. Therefore, in the present work, a specific designed honeycomb-like well biointerface was designed and obtained by replication in PDMS at large scale and its effectiveness towards creating a pro-healing environment was investigated. The grayscale masks assisted laser-based 3D texturing method was used for creating the required moulds in Polycarbonate for large area replication. By comparison to the smooth substrate, the honeycomb topography altered the fibroblasts' behaviour in terms of adhesion and morphology and reduced the macrophages' inflammatory response. Additionally, the microstructured surface effectively inhibited macrophage fusion, significantly limiting the colonization of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative microbial strains on the tested surfaces. Overall, this study introduces an innovative approach to mitigate the
