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

Early prediction of long-term scar outcomes is essential for guiding clinical decision-making and improving patient satisfaction. This study investigates whether 3-month patient-reported outcomes (PROs) using SCAR-Q domains-psychosocial, appearance and quality of life (QoL)-predict 12-month outcomes, and how these relate to objective scar measures. A prospective cohort of 20 female patients undergoing various surgical procedures completed SCAR-Q and Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale (POSAS) evaluations at 3 and 12 months postoperatively. Correlation and linear regression analyses assessed associations and predictive validity between early and late scar outcomes. SCAR-Q QoL scores demonstrated strong predictive validity (R
