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

Soft tissue reconstruction of the foot can be a complex task to undertake when presented with challenging wounds. The foot comprises thick, glabrous skin with its own unique soft tissue anatomy that is suited to withstand its necessary functional demands. "Spare parts" reconstruction provides an option for closure of complicated skin wounds encompassing areas of large, unsalvageable defects. This report presents the cases of 2 patients who underwent successful care at our institution. Each patient's approach was individualized based on the etiology and presentation of the wound while any comorbid conditions were taken into consideration. The purpose of these case reports is to highlight 2 examples involving spare parts foot reconstruction of complicated defects, both of which decreased donor morbidity and lessened the degree of amputation.
