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

purposeThe purpose of this study is to retrospect and summarize clinical efficiency and experience of the free superficial palmar branch of radial artery (SPBRA) flap for soft-tissue reconstruction in distal digital injury.

method13 patients with soft-tissue defect of finger, reconstructed by the free superficial palmar branch of radial artery (SPBRA) flap in our department from January 2020 to January 2022, were reviewed. After 6-12 months of follow-up, evaluated the treatment effect of the fingers reconstructed by SPBRA flap.

resultsAll the flaps in our series application were survival uneventful, and all the donor sites were closed primarily without complications or obvious scarring. The flaps were soft in texture and satisfactory in appearance and function. The flaps with the median nerve palmar cutaneous branch had a good sensation recovery. Measurement of two-point discrimination (TPD) ranged from 6 to 10 mm. All patients were satisfied with the aesthetic appearance. According to the Evaluation Trial Standards of Upper Limb Partial Function of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association, the results were graded as excellent in 11 cases and good in 2 cases.

conclusionThe SPBRA perforator flap has the advantages of simple operation, soft texture, good appearance and function, and is credible and useful for reconstructing various finger injuries.
