Telogen Effluvium as a complication of scalp reconstruction with tissue expander: a case report.
Article in Acta bio-medica : Atenei Parmensis, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
BACKGROUND AND
aimThe treatment of burn alopecia is still considered a challenging task for plastic surgeons. Tissue expansion has been extensively described as a useful technique used in order allow the reconstruction of large scalp defects with reliable hair-bearing tissue, enhancing the final aesthetic outcome. CASE REPORT: We present the case of a 43-tear-old woman affected by scarring burn alopecia of left parietal area, treated with staged tissue expansion and local flap reconstruction. Despite the complete flap survival, a reversible acute hair loss 12 days after surgery, ascribable as Telogen Effluvium (TE), was reported.
conclusionsTE is a rare and self-limiting condition potentially related with any kind surgery or stressful events. Plastic surgeons should be aware of this condition, particularly when performing scalp reconstruction, as it can be misled with other local complications. Clinical diagnosis is of paramount importance to avoid useless or even harmful treatments: reassuring the patient remains the most effective therapeutic pathway.
