Hybrid breast reconstruction-the best of both worlds.
Article in Gland surgery, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
The two common reconstructive modalities following mastectomy include implant-based reconstruction and autologous reconstruction. While the majority of patients can be successfully treated with either one of these approaches, a subset of patients will benefit from a third reconstructive approach which combines implant-based and autologous reconstruction, i.e., hybrid reconstruction. Here, the authors discuss indications, surgical technique, results and additional reconstructive considerations of combining free abdominal tissue transfer with simultaneous implant placement. A reconstructive algorithm is presented.
