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 paper aims to present the reconstructive surgical approach in the case of a patient with complex soft tissue lesions of the calf. The patient was the victim of a road accident resulting in the fracture of the right tibia for which screw-plate osteosynthesis was performed. The chosen therapeutic solution was represented by covering the soft tissue defects using a complex algorithm that involved the use of a reverse sural flap associated with a medial hemisoleus muscle flap and a split-thickness skin graft. Considering functional recovery and the degree of patient satisfaction, the result of the therapeutic conduct was appreciated as very good. The association of the reverse sural flap with the medial hemisoleus flap can be a solution for solving complex cases with multiple soft tissue defects located in the middle and lower third of the calf.
