Multi-staged management of a mangled, exploded hand crush injury with long-term outcome: the critical link between surgery and therapy.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 38-year-old right-hand dominant man sustained a severe, work-related left-hand crushing injury. A multi-staged approach to salvage was employed in conjunction with aggressive hand therapy involvement for a successful, functional outcome. Now at approximately 5 years postinjury, the patient can perform daily activities, coaches sports and has returned to and maintained his full-time work position. Mangled, severe hand crush injuries warrant immediate treatment to debride non-salvageable tissues, stabilise and revascularise the hand in an effort to maximise reconstructive potential and functional capacity. It is critical to recognise that these cases require multiple stages of operative reconstruction with direct and ongoing involvement of hand therapy and pending degree of injury, rehabilitation often lasting months to years.
