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

objectiveTo evaluate the clinical application of damage control surgery (DCS) in patients with sacrococcygeal deep decubitus ulcers complicated by sepsis.

methodsWe conducted a 3-year retrospective clinical study of 32 patients with deep sacrococcygeal bedsores and sepsis admitted from January 2018 to January 2021. According to the concept of DCS, the wound was temporarily closed with vacuum sealing drainage after primary debridement, and a local rhomboid flap was designed to repair the wound in the second stage. Finally, the clinical therapeutic effect was observed.

resultsTwenty-nine patients were treated with skin flap translocation and were cured clinically. Specifically, the skin flap survived in 27 of the 29 patients after the first translocation attempt (success rate of 93.1%). One patient developed incisional dehiscence, and one patient developed a hydrocele under the skin flap.

conclusionsApplication of DCS in patients with sacrococcygeal deep decubitus ulcers complicated by sepsis improves the therapeutic success rate and reduces the risks of the operation and complication rate. It has unique advantages and is worthy of clinical promotion.
