"Y" anastomosis, a solution in doubtful venous anastomosis: a case report and review of the literature.
Review in Journal of medical case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundLower lip squamous cell carcinoma is a significant subtype of head and neck cancer, constituting about 25-30% of cases. Traditional surgical methods, like primary closure, have limitations in managing large resections of lip tumors. Recent advancements in surgical techniques, particularly free flaps, have shown promising results in addressing these challenges. The Y-shaped anastomosis is an innovative approach aimed at enhancing the efficiency of microvascular free flap surgeries for improved lip cancer reconstruction outcomes. CASE PRESENTATION: A 77-year-old Persian male with lower lip squamous cell carcinoma underwent tumor resection with a 2 cm safety margin, bilateral neck dissection, and lip reconstruction using the right radial forearm free flap. The surgery incorporated a Y-shaped anastomosis to improve venous pedicle outcomes.
conclusionIn this case, it was decided not to open the first anastomosis but to add the second end to the side one to provide two vascular supports for the venous anastomosis. Y anastomosis makes the surgery easier and decreases complications resulting from vascular size mismatch.
