Staged Treatment of Cutaneous Calcinosis with Polylactic Acid Matrix, Negative Pressure Wound Therapy and Skin Grafting: A Case Report.
Article in Reports (MDPI), 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
Background and Clinical Significance: Dystrophic calcinosis cutis involves calcium deposition in damaged or chronically inflamed tissues despite normal calcium and phosphate metabolism. Although typically associated with systemic sclerosis and dermatomyositis, it is rare in rheumatoid arthritis. Ulceration over calcified deposits may impair healing and function. This case highlights a staged reconstructive strategy to remove calcified tissue and achieve definitive wound closure. Case Presentation: A 73-year-old woman with a 22-year history of rheumatoid arthritis presented with painful, partially confluent pretibial ulcerations, purulent drainage, impaired mobility, and extrusion of chalk-like material. Radiographic and histopathological findings supported dystrophic calcinosis cutis. Deep-tissue culture grew
