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

backgroundRevision procedures for recurrent Dupuytren disease (DD) can be difficult and carry a high risk of complications. Our goal was to describe surgical strategies used for cases of recurrence and report on their outcomes.

methodsWe reviewed 1 surgeon's operative cases for recurrent DD performed at 1 institution. Prior procedures included collagenase injection, percutaneous needle fasciotomy, or open surgical fasciectomy in the same digit or area of the hand.

resultsFrom January 1981 to December 2020, 54 procedures were performed on 33 patients for recurrent DD. Most patients were men (82%), had bilateral involvement (64%) and family history (52%), and some had ectopic disease in their feet (24%). The small finger was involved in 76% of the cases, and the proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint was involved in 83% of these digits. The procedures included 38 partial fasciectomies (72%), 12 dermofasciectomies (23%), 3 radical fasciectomies (6%), 1 of each needle fasciotomy, ray amputation, and PIP joint arthrodesis (2%). Twenty-three patients (43%) required full thickness skin grafts with an average area of 7.1 cm

conclusionsThis study highlights the complexity of recurrent DD case management and found the treatment required for 95% of patients in this series was open partial fasciectomy with or without demofasciectomy. Full thickness skin grafting was necessary in nearly half of the cases.
