1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Burn injuries cause a considerable number of fatalities in Indonesia annually. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in combination with stromal vascular fraction (SVF) is a stem cell-related treatment modality for deep dermal burn wound healing that utilizes growth factors such as the epidermal growth factor (EGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF2). This study aimed to assess the relationship between serum EGF and FGF2 levels and their impact on re-epithelialization and fibroblast histopathology during deep dermal burn wound healing using PRP and SVF. Wistar rats (n=64) were categorized into the following groups: PRP+SVF injection (Group A), topical PRP+SVF application (Group B), topical Vaseline application (Group C), or control (Group D). Treatments were evaluated on days 1, 4, 7, 10 and 14 post-treatment for the treatment groups and day 0 for the control group. The software SPSS 22 was used for the statistical analysis, along with the Shapiro-Wilk, independent t-test, Mann-Whitney, Kruskal-Wallis, one-way ANOVA, and Kendall's Tau-B tests. The results showed that Group A exhibited the highest FGF2 and EGF levels (6.62 and 8.10 ng/ml, respectively), closely followed by Group B (6.40 and 7.09 ng/ml, respectively). Group C had lower FGF2 levels than Group D and similar EGF levels. The PRP+SVF injection group displayed faster re-epithelialization and fibroblast proliferation. The PRP+SVF injections outperformed the topical application and Vaseline, with greater re-epithelialization and higher EGF levels. Although the injections showed comparable healing to the topical application, Vaseline produced proliferation differences during deep dermal burn wound recovery.
