Tongue Reconstruction After Hemiglossectomy Due to Cancer by Submental Flap: A Case Series.
Article in International medical case reports journal, 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
We report three clinical cases using a submental flap to reconstruct the half-tongue defects after tongue cancer surgery at Hue Central Hospital (Hue city, Vietnam). The size of the flap ranged 30-60mm. The time to take flap ranged 50-60 minutes. All three patients did not have liquid accumulation, wound infection and bleeding after surgery; the flap survived well. All patients were taken the nasogastric tube out after ten days and discharged after two weeks. Postoperative functional (speech, swallowing) and tongue aesthetic assessments (symmetry) were good. These cases highlight that the submental flap is a choice for patients with flaws in the tongue. It ensures both functional and aesthetic for the regenerative tongue and donor site.
