Combination of negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) and integra dermal regeneration template (IDRT) in the lower extremity wound; Our experience with 4 cases.
Article in JPRAS open, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 7 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 treatment of de-gloving injuries in the lower limb with exposed tendons, bone, and/or nerve is a challenging reconstruction problem. The standard management of de-gloving injuries involve either direct closure if the skin is viable or immediate grafting with the avulsed skin or full- or split-thickness graft when the skin flap is not viable. Alternative methods are flap coverage especially when the underlying structures are not suitable for grafting such as extensive loss of paratenon and/or exposed bone or open joints The use of negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) followed by use of Integra dermal regeneration template (IDRT) and subsequent split-thickness skin grafting (STSG) as an alternative to the previously mentioned surgical options has been described. In this series we describe the successful management of four patients with exposed tendons, bones, and joints of the distal lower extremity following road traffic accidents (RTA) using NPWT, Integra and thin split-thickness skin grafts.
