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

Although radiation therapy remains an integral component in cancer treatment, the sequela of tissue damage can result in long-term morbidity and mortality for patients. This article aimed to perform a comprehensive review of the current literature for both nonsurgical and surgical management strategies for radiation-induced injuries. Methods: A literature search was performed on PubMed to review the current described management and treatment options for radiation-induced injuries. Patient demographics, medical diagnoses, complications, strategies of management care, and outcomes were reviewed. Results: The most commonly described management options and reconstructive techniques of radiation wounds were analyzed and reported. Conclusions: Consideration of current techniques and outcomes in the management of radiation-induced wounds demonstrates that impaired wound healing remains a major problem. This literature review provides a detailed overview of the most frequently used therapies with recommendations for surgeons.
