Management of Severe Extended Burn Axillary Contracture in a Low-resource Setting.

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
Contracture is a common complication of deep burn injury, affecting up to one-third of patients. Although some degree of contracture occurs in any setting, severe extended axillary contractures are more often due to unavailable or inappropriate care. Very few cases have been described in the literature. Their management can be especially challenging in a low-resource environment. The purpose of this article is to present two cases in which severe postburn axillary contractures were effectively managed in a low resource setting, using an island perforator flap coupled with a skin graft or advancement flap. In severe extended axillary contracture, more than one technique is often required to cover the large defect created after contracture release.
