Autologous structural iliac bone grafts in reconstructions of short bone defects in the hand and foot after primary bone tumor resections: a single-institution retrospective study.

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
The use of structural autografts from the iliac crest for reconstruction of bony defects in the hand and foot was described by Wilson and Lance in 1965. However, very few series of this technique are published and long-term results are unknown. We present a single-institution series of 23 patients with a mean follow-up of 92 months. We also describe a novel modification of this technique using the anterior superior iliac spine for reconstruction of the adjacent joint. Failure rate was 13% at mean of 17.3 months. All patients had a firm grip in the hand and walked without support. Bony fusion was achieved in all cases regardless of the type of fixation used. The use of ASIS for joint reconstruction was successful, particularly in low-demand joints. We encountered 1 case of instability and progressive stiffness in weight-bearing joints. This is a reliable method of reconstructing bony defects in the hand or foot following tumor resections.
