The Use of Buccal Fat Pad Versus Buccal Mucosal Flap in Cleft Patient Palatoplasty-A Literature Review.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2025. 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
The buccal fat pad and buccal mucosa are anatomical structures closely related to palatal clefts which can provide additional tissues for defect reconstruction which is crucial for practitioners aiming to lessen the need for additional corrective surgeries in patients with cleft palates and to lower the rates of residual palatal fistulae.
