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

introductionThe objective of this study was to evaluate a surgical technique and to present the results of delayed reconstruction of palatomaxillary defects using fibula free flap (FFF).

methodsA review was conducted for nine patients who underwent palatomaxillary reconstruction using FFF. Primary disease, type of reconstruction, defect area, fibula segment length and number of osteotomies, radiotherapy, and implant installation after FFF reconstruction were analyzed.

resultsAll nine patients underwent delayed reconstruction. The fibula shaft was osteotomized into two segments in seven patients and three segments in one patient with bilateral Brown's revised classification IV/d defect. One case was planned by using a computer-aided design computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) system with a navigation system. The mean length of the grafted fibula bone was 68.06 mm. Dental implant treatment was performed in six patients. Six patients received radiation therapy, and there were no specific complications related to the radiation therapy. In one case, the defect was reconstructed with FFF flow-through from a radial forearm free flap.

conclusionThis clinical study demonstrated that the fibula flap is an ideal donor-free flap in a palatomaxillary defect. Delayed reconstruction using an FFF can reduce the complication and failure rates.
