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

Lower extremity traumatic wounds pose unique challenges in pediatric patients, including vessel caliber, compliance with postoperative instructions, parental concerns about multiple operations, and long-term function. An autologous heterogeneous skin construct (AHSC) has demonstrated the ability to cover avascular structures and regenerate full-thickness functional skin. The objective of this study is to report our experience using AHSC in a cohort of pediatric trauma patients. This study is a noncontrolled, retrospective cohort analysis of all pediatric patients (<19 years of age) treated with AHSC for lower extremity traumatic wounds with at least one exposed deep structure (tendon, bone, and/or joint) at a single institution between May 1, 2018, and April 1, 2019. Seven patients with 10 traumatic wounds met inclusion criteria. The median follow-up time was 11.8 months. Five patients were male (71%); the median age was 7 years (range = 2-15 years). Average wound size was 105 cm
