Predictors of Success following Microvascular Replantation Surgery of the Upper Extremity in Adult Patients.

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
The purpose of this study is to ascertain which factors are associated with successful replantation in the upper extremity. Secondarily, the purpose was to determine patient factors that differentiate those patients who undergo initial replantation versus initial amputation. Methods: Data gathered for this retrospective study were obtained from a custom subset of the 2015-2020 IBM Truven MarketScan Commercial and IBM Truven MarketScan Medicare Supplemental databases. Data were sorted using Current Procedural Terminology codes and International Classification of Disease, Ninth and Tenth Revision, diagnosis codes. Results: Increasing age was significantly associated with undergoing initial amputation compared with replantation ( Conclusions: In conclusion, this study demonstrates that age and the presence of comorbidities are important factors in the differentiation of which patients undergo initial reimplantation versus initial amputation. Additionally, no specific factors were identified that were associated with secondary procedures after replantation.
