Cryocarboxy Surgery: A New Armamentarium in the Treatment of Infantile Hemangiomas of the Lips.
Article in Journal of maxillofacial and oral surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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: Cryotherapy was reported in the treatment of infantile hemangiomas by many studies using liquid nitrogen as a cryogen. Objective: To evaluate the outcome of cryo-carboxy surgery in treatment of infantile lip hemangiomas. Methods: In this study, we present the use of carbon dioxide as the cryogen in 50 patients with infantile hemangiomas of the lips with successful results. The patient evaluation was done including the improvement in color, texture, and volume of the lesion and each of the three parameters was given a score on a 4-point scale; excellent, good, fair, or poor. Results: The average evaluation score of our patients was excellent in 37 (74%) cases and good in 13 (26%) cases. We had no fair or poor results. There was no postprocedural hypopigmentation in any of the patients with lesions limited to the mucosa and Vermillion. In contrast, all cases with lesions extending to the lip skin (10 cases) experienced hypopigmentation which resolved spontaneously within 3 months. No complications were observed in our cases during the follow-up period and no cases, during the follow-up period, showed regrowth of the treated lesions. Conclusion: We can conclude that, cryo-carboxy surgery is an effective safe new tool in the armamentarium of the treatment of infantile hemangiomas of the lips with successful results.
