Analysis of risk factors for postoperative wound healing in children with bone cysts.
Article in Annals of medicine, 2026. 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
backgroundBone cysts are common benign bone tumour-like lesions in children and adolescents. Postoperative wound healing complications significantly affect patient outcomes. Current research primarily focuses on cyst recurrence and bone healing, while studies targeting risk factors for poor postoperative wound healing in children are relatively scarce.
methodsThis single-center retrospective cohort analysis included 99 children with bone cysts who were hospitalized and underwent surgical treatment between January 2021 and September 2025. We analyzed these data in November 2025. Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression were used to assess the association of demographic, lesion characteristics and surgery-related variables with poor wound healing.
resultsAmong the 99 children, 13 (13.1%) experienced poor wound healing. Multivariate analysis revealed that no or single-dose preoperative antibiotic prophylaxis (OR = 9.808,
conclusionInadequate perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis (either no administration or a single preoperative dose only), physeal involvement of the lesion and prolonged operative time are independent risk factors for poor postoperative wound healing in children. Standardizing antibiotic protocols and identifying high-risk patients based on lesion anatomical characteristics are crucial for reducing the risk of complications.
