Covering of an exposed vascular graft in the groin with an external oblique muscle rotational flap.

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
Abdominal muscles, such as the oblique- and transverse muscles, find their blood supply from multiple segmental pedicles from the iliac artery. Besides its superior vascularization, its release is simple, leaving two abdominal muscles for securing abdominal wall strength. The release of the muscle and coverage of the graft requires partial muscle mobilization and is a minor reconstruction, but extension of the mobilization cranially enables coverage of larger defects. We present a case of an infected vascular graft in the groin successfully preserved through coverage with an external oblique muscle flap.
