Hand Transplantation-Risks and Benefits.
Review in Journal of hand and microsurgery, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Composite tissue allotransplantation (CTA) is the culmination of progress in transplantation, allowing the reconstruction of the hand in amputees. Worldwide, more than 100 procedures have been performed. The aim of this work was to understand the hand allotransplantation approach, making known current aspects, risks, and benefits. A PubMed research was realized between October 2018 and March 2019, including terms like "Hand transplantation" AND "Composite tissue allotransplantation," "Hand transplantation" AND "Functional outcomes," "Hand transplantation" AND "Immunosuppression," "Hand prosthetics," "Hand Transplantation" AND "Ethics." There were included papers between 1995 and 2018, with English language, amputee human adults, systematic reviews, and clinical studies. Seventy-two papers were fully evaluated. There are technical aspects that influence the procedure like team coordination or surgical technique. It requires a long-life treatment, which has risks such as toxicity or infections. However, it allows the recovery of fine movements, and independence, to perform detailed tasks. The indications must be carefully considered, because some patients benefit from the use of prosthesis. CTA has become an option for amputees so it is important to do more research, to determine the benefits of this procedure. It is not considered a life-saving procedure, so there is an ethical debate because of the risks.
