Analyzing attempt and success factors for amputated digit replantation in Japan using the diagnosis procedure combination database.
Article in Scientific reports, 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
The number of amputated finger replantation has declined in the USA and Germany in recent years; however, there have been no reports on recent trends in Japan. We examined the current practices, attempts, and success factors of digit replantation in Japan. We hypothesized that the rates of digit replantation and success rates were consistently standardized in Japan. The diagnosis procedure combination database was used to analyze 14004 cases from April 2014 to March 2020, excluding multiple-digit amputations, thus focusing on 13484 patients. We evaluated replantation success rates and identified factors influencing replantation decisions using multiple logistic regression analysis. The key findings included a higher frequency of replantation in thumb cases and surgeries during overtime hours, on Sundays, and in educational institutions. Success rates were notably higher for thumb replantations and patients under 20 years of age. Patients over 65 years of age treated with urokinase showed higher failure rates, unrelated to regional or hospital case volumes. The number of amputated digit replantation surgeries in Japan was high during overtime hours, on Sundays, and in educational institutions. Region, hospital type, and hospital case volume were not associated with a low success rate across Japan.
