Multiple simultaneous venous flow-through free flap salvage for multifinger revascularisations.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
A 22-year-old man presented with traumatic crush-avulsion injuries to the left index, ring and small fingers resulting in complex soft tissue loss and acute three-finger ischaemia. The patient underwent immediate revascularisation and soft tissue resurfacing of the three digits using three separate venous flow-through free flaps performed in a single-stage operation. Continued follow-up after 9 months confirmed successful salvage of these three digits. Multiple simultaneous venous flow-through free flaps can be considered as a viable alternative reconstructive modality for traumatic multi-digit ischaemia where both graft-based digital artery reconstruction and soft tissue coverage are required for multiple digits.
