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

Ulceration of a reconstructed nipple occurred in a woman in her 50s who had undergone mastectomy, axillary lymph node dissection, and deep inferior epigastric artery perforator flap reconstruction for right breast cancer. The implanted cartilage was removed on suspicion of infection and the ulcer was biopsied. Local recurrence was identified on histopathological examination. Local recurrence near a reconstructed nipple can cause ulceration because of the fragility of the reconstructed nipple tissue. If erosion or ulceration develops in the reconstructed nipple relatively long after surgery, pathological examination is warranted.
