Investigating the Efficacy and Safety of Oral Cicaglocal on Wound Healing After Mohs Surgery in Patients With Skin Cancer: A Randomized, Double-Blinded, Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trial.
Trial report in Journal of cosmetic dermatology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundMohs micrographic surgery is the gold standard treatment for skin cancers in cosmetically sensitive anatomic areas, with a cure rate close to 100%. Managing post-Mohs surgery wounds can pose challenges, particularly in elderly patients. This study evaluates the Cicaglocal drug, a supplement with bromelain, Centella asiatica, hyaluronan, vitamins, and minerals, for enhancing wound healing post-Mohs surgery.
methodThis double-blinded, randomized clinical trial conducted at Al-Zahra Hospital in 2023 involved 24 patients aged 50-80 with SCC or BCC undergoing Mohs surgery. Patients were randomized into two groups Cicaglocal and placebo. Treatments were administered postoperatively, and outcomes such as erythema reduction, early healing score (EHS), full recovery, and patient and physician satisfaction levels were evaluated 7 and 14 days after initiation. Data were collected through clinical assessments and standardized wound photographs.
resultOral Cicaglocal demonstrated significantly improved outcomes compared to their respective placebo groups in terms of erythema score, EHS, full recovery score, and patient and physician satisfaction levels.
conclusionCicaglocal can enhance wound healing and lead to improved clinical outcomes following Mohs micrographic surgery.
