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

Pediatric penile skin grafting is rarely performed. We present a case series of four pediatric patients receiving skin grafting due to the loss of penile skin. The four boys were followed up for 1 to 5 years. One full-thickness skin graft and three split-thickness skin grafts (STSGs) survived well with low Vancouver scar scale scores. One boy gradually developed lymphedema of the distal foreskin and underwent a second preputioplasty. He presented with normal erectile function and did not experience any pain. We propose thick STSGs as the most appropriate choice for pediatric penile skin reconstruction. Lymphedema of the foreskin is an important long-term complication of penile skin grafting.
