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

purposePerianal Buschke-Löwenstein tumor (BLT) is characterized by an exophytic cauliflower-like mass surrounding the perianal region. Its tendency to infiltrate the adjacent tissues, its massiveness, and its high recurrence rate cause difficulties in treatment. The aim of this study is to report our strategy with wide local excision and flap reconstruction for BLT.

methodsFrom November 2002 to June 2019, 11 patients (9 men) with a mean age of 33.45 years (range, 19-54 years) were operated on for BLT. All patients underwent wide local excision and V-Y flap reconstruction, supplemented with other flaps whenever needed. No additional modalities were used.

resultsTwo patients had a history of anal intercourse while all patients were human immunodeficiency virus-negative. The mean tumor length was 15.54 ± 1.34 cm (range, 10-26 cm). Human papillomavirus 6 was the most common type identified. Partial wound dehiscence developed in 3 patients, while anal stenosis, mucosal ectropion, or local recurrence was not observed during the mean follow-up period of 50.45 ± 1.75 months (range, 10-196 months).

conclusionIn patients with perianal BLT, wide local excision and flap reconstruction result in a high healing rate without significant complications.
