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

introduction and hypothesisEpisiotomy scar may be the site of complications and result in wound dehiscence in the long term. The aim of this video article was to describe the surgical steps required to repair a right perineal defect after episiotomy using a V-Y advancement flap.

methodOur patient had an episiotomy dehiscence that had already benefited from an end-to-end repair, but the perineal defect recurred. A V-Y advancement flap was performed. The first step of this surgery was to remove the episiotomy scar. A V-shaped flap was then created to fill the perineal defect. Upon advancement, the V flap was transformed in a Y shape and secured using tension-free absorbable sutures.

conclusionThere was no flap necrosis, and the esthetic result was satisfactory.
