Role of gelatamp over absorbable gelatin sponge in impacted mandibular third molar surgery.
Article in Bioinformation, 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
Impacted mandibular 3rd molar extractions are linked with a modest incidence of postoperative difficulties. Several procedures such as pressure dressings, atraumatic surgical techniques and use of hemostatic material to minimize these complications have been employed. Therefore, it is of interest to assess the effectiveness of Gelatamp and conventional Gelfoam in reducing bleeding, postoperative pain and swelling after mandibular third molar surgery. Hence, a total of 21 patients undergoing bilateral mandibular third molar extractions were divided into, Group A Gelatamp and Group B Gelfoam. Postoperative outcomes such as bleeding, pain (VAS) and swelling were assessed after extraction of third molar. We observed that Gelatamp showed superior clinical efficacy over absorbable gelatin sponge in reducing postoperative pain, early bleeding andreduce swelling.
