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

Purpose: This study aimed to compare the effects of a Moist Wound Healing (MWH) strategy using Sanyrene liquid dressing versus Traditional Dry Care (TDC) with infrared lamp irradiation on donor site healing time and psychological symptoms in burn patients. Methods: A retrospective cohort of 173 patients undergoing split-thickness skin graft surgery was divided into TDC (n=92) and MWH (n=81) groups based on documented postoperative care. Healing time was assessed from postoperative day 7 until complete re-epithelialization. Pain was evaluated twice daily using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) during the 7-day intervention. Skin condition and scar quality were assessed via the Overall Dry Skin (ODS) score and Vancouver Scar Scale (VSS) at 1 and 3 months. Psychological symptoms were measured at 3 months using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Results: The MWH group exhibited a significantly shorter mean healing time (13.23 days vs 16.85 days, P<0.001) and a higher proportion of wounds healed within 7 days (35.8% vs 17.39%, P=0.006). From day 4 onward, MWH patients reported lower NRS pain scores (eg, 2.51 vs 2.98 on day 7, P<0.001). At follow-up, the MWH group had better ODS and VSS scores (all P<0.05) and lower HADS-Anxiety (P=0.005) and HADS-Depression scores (P=0.002). Multivariate analysis confirmed MWH as an independent protective factor against non-healing within 7 days (OR=0.624, P=0.002). Conclusion: MWH with Sanyrene dressing is associated with faster donor site healing, reduced pain, improved skin and scar outcomes, and better psychological well-being compared to TDC in burn patients.
