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

Objective: To explore the effectiveness of modified rhomboid flap for repairing facial skin and soft tissue defect. Methods: Between January 2016 and May 2018, 23 patients with facial skin and soft defect were repaired by the modified rhomboid flap. There were 10 males and 13 females with the median age of 27 years (range, 11-72 years). The primary tumor included pigmented nevus in 18 cases, basal cell carcinoma in 4 cases, and squamous cell carcinoma in 1 case. The defect location was nose in 8 cases, cheek in 4 cases, malar in 6 cases, forehead in 2 cases, and upper lip in 3 cases. The defect ranged from 0.8 cm×0.8 cm to 3.9 cm×3.9 cm. According to the location and size of facial tumors, the resection area of square lesions was designed. According to the mobility of surrounding tissues and the direction of dermatoglyphic lines, the rhomboid flaps with an angle of 45-60° was designed to repair the defect by tension-free rotation. Results: All the flaps survived and the incision healed by first intension. All patients were followed up 3-15 months (mean, 7.3 months). During follow-up, no tumor reoccurred; the color and texture of the flaps were similar with surrounding tissue. There was no obvious scar hyperplasia, nor traction of adjacent normal tissues, and patients were satisfied with the appearance. Conclusion: The application of modified rhomboid flaps in repairing facial skin and soft tissue defects caused by resection of round facial tumor has the advantages of flexible design, simple manipulation, and less trauma.
