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

objectiveTo evaluate the long-term effectiveness of vascularized fibula flap in radiocarpal joint reconstruction following excision of Campanacci grade Ⅲ giant cell tumor (GCT) of distal radius.

methodsBetween December 2010 and December 2014, 10 patients with Campanacci grade Ⅲ GCT of distal radius were treated with en bloc excision and inradiocarpal joint reconstruction using vascularized fibula flap. They were 6 males and 4 females, with an average age of 39.9 years (range, 22-65 years). The disease duration was 1.5-6.0 months (mean, 2.6 months). The length of distal radius defect was 6.0-12.5 cm (mean, 8.4 cm) after en bloc excision of GCT. Vascularized fibula flap with inferior lateral genicular vessels were performed in 6 patients and with inferior lateral genicular vessels and peroneal vessels in 4 cases.

resultsAll incisions healed by first intention. All patients were followed up 4.4-8.3 years (mean, 6.0 years). There was no tumor recurrence during follow-up. At last follow-up, the mean ranges of motion of wrist joint were 55.0° (range, 25-85°) in extension, 26.5° (range, 15-40°) in flexion, 12.0° (range, 5-25°) in radial deviation, 19.6° (range, 10-30°) in ulnar deviation, 50.5° (range, 5-90°) in pronation, and 66.5° (range, 20-90°) in supination. The mean grip strength of effected wrist was 75% (range, 60%-85%) of the healthy wrist. The mean Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) score was 82.7% (range, 75%-90%). X-ray films showed that the fibula flap healed at 12-16 weeks after operation (mean, 14.1 weeks) and there were 9 cases of radiological complications.

conclusionFor Campanacci grade Ⅲ GCT of distal radius, application of the vascularized fibula flap in radiocarpal joint reconstruction after en bloc excision of GCT can obtain good wrist function.
