Analysis of the Efficacy of Surgical Excision Combined with Electron Beam Therapy for Keloids.
Article in Indian journal of surgical oncology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This study aimed to investigate the incidence and impact of patient characteristics and timing of postoperative electron beam therapy on the treatment efficacy of keloids. A total of 66 patients with keloids underwent surgical treatment and postoperative electron beam therapy. Follow-up was conducted for 43 patients, and treatment efficacy was analyzed for 39 patients. Statistical analysis was used to analyze incidence characteristics and effects of patient characteristics and timing of electron beam therapy on treatment efficacy. The study included 66 patients with 133 keloids. The timing of electron beam therapy significantly impacted treatment efficacy, with higher efficacy observed when performed 0-2 days after surgery compared to 3-5 days after surgery. Keloids are more common in women aged 20-40 years. The timing of electron beam therapy significantly impacted treatment efficacy, with higher efficacy observed when performed 0-2 days after surgery compared to 3-5 days after surgery.
