Vacuum sealing drainage combined with free anterolateral femoral skin flap grafting in 16 cases of pediatric soft tissue damage to the foot and ankle.
Article in Translational pediatrics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
backgroundTo investigate the clinical experience and discuss the use of vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) combined with free anterolateral femoral flap grafting to treat pediatric foot and ankle soft tissue traumas.
methodsThis was a retrospective analysis of 16 pediatric patients with foot and ankle soft tissue traumas treated with free anterolateral femoral flap grafting from January 2015 to January 2018. After successful debridement and VSD, the clinical efficacy of the procedure was evaluated by observing parameters such as the color, shape, and texture of the flap on the receptor site.
resultsAll patients were followed up for 23-32 months after surgery. Of the 16 patients, six had a flat flap appearance, while the remaining ten patients required flap repair surgery 6-9 months after the procedure. Eight of these ten patients had a satisfactory repair, and the remaining two patients had further repair surgery 9-10 months after the flap grafting. The postoperative results of all patients were satisfactory; no local infection, good flap survival, soft texture, glossy elasticity, and flat appearance. Statistical results showed only one case of local necrosis at the distal end of the flap, and the wound healed at stage II after redebridement and dressing change.
conclusionsVSD combined with free anterolateral femoral flap grafting is an easy and reliable operation with a good prognosis and excellent clinical utility and feasibility for treating pediatric patients with foot and ankle soft tissue traumas.
