1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 application value of Masquelet induced membrane technique for the treatment of rat chronic osteomyelitis was explored. A total of 180 male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into sham operation group (control group), chronic osteomyelitis model group (model group) and Masquelet induced membrane therapy + chronic osteomyelitis model group (observation group); 60 rats in each group. A rat model of traumatic osteomyelitis was established using a modified blunt trauma method in model and observation group. All rats in observation group were treated with membrane induction technology while in the control group they were not. Postoperative complications, bone healing time and functional status of the affected limbs were recorded. After surgery, no obvious perioperative complications occurred in most of the rats, except that 5 rats experienced partial necrosis at the edge of the flap, and 3 experienced superficial infection around the incision site in the ilium. Primary bone healing was achieved in 50 rats with an average healing time of 15 weeks. Among them, 38 rats restored weight-bearing function after 20 weeks. Seven rats experienced infection after surgery, but complete bone healing was achieved after treatment with induced membrane technique again. Following treatment with induced membrane technique, the rat body weight, body temperature and the number of bacteria in the wound decreased over time. In conclusion, Masquelet induced membrane technique is effective for the treatment of large bone defects in rats after traumatic osteomyelitis. This technique significantly shortens the treatment cycle. The surgical procedure is simple, and the incidence of postoperative complications is low.
