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 neuropathic foot in diabetic patients constitutes a special clinical entity that needs particular care and ministration. A burn on such a foot requires special care and attention in order to avoid amputation, especially when the burn is a deep partial or a full-thickness burn. The indication for early excision and coverage of a diabetic foot is taken under consideration in clinical practice. An 80-year-old male diabetic patient with deep partial and full-thickness burns on both his feet after a long hot footbath is presented. Even though feet appearance indicated the need for amputation of both feet, we performed gradual surgical debridement and primary coverage with human skin allografts. Both feet were finally covered with partial thickness skin grafts. Considering age, general condition and severity of the burn injuries, the final results were very satisfactory. We believe that the gamma-radiated allograft is another useful adjunct to the reconstructive armamentarium of the surgeon.
