Piscine-Derived Acellular Dermal Matrix in Upper Extremity Reconstruction.
Article in Eplasty, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Background: Wound reconstruction involving exposed critical structures, especially in medically complex patients and in those who are at high risk of loss to follow-up, presents a unique challenge to surgeons. The use of acellular dermal matrix (ADM) has augmented our ability to address these wounds safely and with minimal morbidity. A piscine ADM, the Kerecis Omega3 Wound, has shown promise in the treatment of chronic wounds and burns. In this study, we describe the use of the Omega3 Wound in reconstruction of upper extremity wounds, including those with exposed critical structures. Methods: From 2019 to 2021, 11 consecutive patients with upper extremity wounds, including 9 with exposed critical structures, were queried. Clinical data was tabulated to evaluate outcomes. Results: Etiology of the wounds included burns, trauma, infection, and oncologic resection. Wound surface area was 150 ± 42 cm Conclusions: The Omega3 Wound allows for complete biologic integration and vascularized wound coverage that accepts a skin graft. Patients can be discharged after application and managed at outpatient facilities. This ADM is safe and well tolerated by patients (including those who are diabetic and immunocompromised) for coverage of upper extremity wounds with exposed critical structures.
