[Treatment of fingertip amputation with semiocclusive dressing].
Article in Der Unfallchirurg, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundFinger injuries are particularly challenging with respect to function and aesthetics. Flap surgery of the hand is technically demanding and can cause large defects if incorrectly performed.
methodSemiocclusive dressing, as described by Mennen and Wiese in 1993 is a simple and well-established method for treating fingertip amputations and soft tissue defects. The method is based on the principle of a moist chamber and is a good conservative option for treating these defects with respect to both function and aesthetics.
