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

This study introduces a free-style perforator based island flap (PBIF) for the reconstruction of skin defects. From March 2012 to December 2022, a retrospective investigation was conducted on patients who underwent reconstruction for facial defects due to skin cancer. Data on the patients' gender, age, anesthesia method, diagnosis, defect location, flap size, complications, and follow-up periods were collected. There are several principles for designing the PBIF: finger-pinching method, alignment with the direction of wrinkles, the smaller width and longer length of the flap, and proximal attachment to the muscle. A total of 32 patients were included, with an average age of 63.6 years. Surgeries were performed in various regions, such as the infraorbital area, nose, cheek, philtrum, and the anterior/posterior/inferior auricular regions, with an average flap size of 7.63 cm
