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

objectiveThe aim of the surgical intervention is the elimination of infections, ulceration and pain caused by ingrown nails (unguis incarnatus). INDICATIONS: A surgical intervention is recommended for ingrown nails (the large toenail is most frequently affected) in stage III and higher (according to the Mozena classification) as well as in cases of nail plate defects and recurrences. CONTRAINDICATIONS: In cases where a disturbance of wound healing is expected and general contraindications for surgery. SURGICAL TECHNIQUE: The surgical approach incorporates a half-moon-shaped skin incision and a straight longitudinal nail incision. Both incisions extend to the bone. A wedge-shaped piece of tissue is removed and after thorough curettage and rinsing the wound is closed using transungual single-button sutures. POSTOPERATIVE MANAGEMENT: Regular changes of wound dressing, relief of the affected ray by immobilization during wound healing. An antibiotic therapy is only indicated in selected cases.

resultsBetween 1 January 2013 and 1 January 2023 a total of 50 Emmert's plastic surgery operations (15 women and 35 men) were performed at the Klinikum Vest, Knappschaftskrankenhaus Recklinghausen. The average age of the patients was 50.6 years. The mean follow-up time was 63 months. The outcome and satisfaction of the patients were evaluated according to the self-reported foot and ankle score (SEFAS). The total point count (median value) of the evaluated SEFAS score was 44.
