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

Popliteal pterygium syndrome (PPS) is a rare inherited disorder involving the face, limbs, and genitalia. The most prominent and handicapping deformity associated with this syndrome is Popliteal pterygium. Popliteal pterygium is a contracture band that extends from ischial tuberosity to calcaneum. It is a dense fibrous band difficult to correct surgically. We report a case of PPS with her two other family members diagnosed with Van der Woude syndrome. Single-stage surgical release is ineffective due to shortened neurovascular and surrounding soft tissues. Multimodality treatment with surgical release and motivated parents may help these children to rehabilitate.
