V advancement eversion flap for fingertip injury: Preventing ischemia and hook-nail deformity.
Article in JPRAS open, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Introduction: Traumatic fingertip amputation is the most common type of upper extremity injuries. The V-Y advancement flap is a reliable method for reconstructing fingertip defects, but it is associated with complications such as hook-nail deformity and suture site ischemia. Here, we describe our modifications to V-Y advancement flap technique, termed as "V advancement eversion flap" and review the outcomes of this procedure in 21 patients with fingertip amputation. Methods: This was a retrospective review of 21 consecutive patients with fingertip injury who were treated surgically using the V advancement eversion flap technique at a single trauma center between 2006 and 2019. We analyzed the age, injury location and mechanism, Allen classification, injury geometry, and objective and subjective clinical outcomes. Results: Twenty-three fingertip amputations with defect sizes greater than 1.0 cm Conclusion: The V advancement eversion flap technique, when properly designed and executed in fingertip amputation cases, can minimize morbidity and result in successful wound healing without flap necrosis and hook-nail deformity.
