Virtual Surgical Planning and 3D-Printed Surgical Guides in Facial Allotransplantation.
Review in Seminars in plastic surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
The complex three-dimensional (3D) anatomy in facial allotransplantation creates a unique challenge for surgical reconstruction. Evolution of virtual surgical planning (VSP) through computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing has advanced reconstructive outcomes for many craniomaxillofacial indications. Surgeons use VSP, 3D models, and surgical guides to analyze and to trial surgical approaches even prior to entering the operating room. This workflow allows the surgeon to plan osteotomies and to anticipate challenges, which improves surgical precision and accuracy, optimizes outcomes, and should reduce operating room time. We present the development, evolution, and utilization of VSP and 3D-printed guides in facial allotransplantation at our institution, from guide conception to first clinical case.
