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

A 48-year-old man with drug addiction presented with gangrene of the right hand following an inadvertent intra-arterial administration of crushed dihydrocodeine tartrate (DF 118) tablets (GlaxoSmithKline S.A.) dissolved in water; the solution was injected into his right antecubital fossa. After 3 weeks of pain, paresthesia, and cyanosis, his right hand became gangrenous. We performed a right forearm amputation by use of the wide-awake local anesthesia no tourniquet technique. After surgery, his wound healed well, and he was successfully fitted with a hand prosthesis.
