Reconstruction of Carpal Bone Loss of Septic Wrist Arthritis Using Induced Membrane Technique.
Article in Journal of hand and microsurgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 induced membrane technique has been widely used for the reconstruction of the segmental bone defect. The technique requires two-stage surgery. The first surgery is debridement of the affected bone and replacement of the defect by cement spacer. The spacer is removed at the second surgery, and the defect is filled with cancellous bone. The use of the technique for septic wrist arthritis treatment has not been reported. We report two cases of septic wrist arthritis treated by the induced membrane technique. Radical debridement including the carpal bones was performed as a first surgery. The cement spacer was placed into the bone defect after first surgery; then cancellous bone was transplanted into the induced membrane several weeks later. External fixator or plate fixation was performed simultaneously. Bone formation was observed in both cases at several months after the reconstruction surgery. There was no pain or recurrence of infection in both cases. We consider this technique is a possible method for reconstruction, especially in a difficult case.
