Deep Circumflex Iliac Artery Osteoseptocutaneous Flap as a Reconstruction Method for Distal Radius Recurrent Giant Cell Tumour in the Case of a Bilateral Peroneal Magna Artery: An Eight-Year Follow-Up.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A vascularized fibula flap is an option to reconstruct osseous and soft tissue defects involving distal radius malignancy with massive soft tissue involvement. This reconstruction method is a strong anatomical construct for wrist arthrodesis and flexible septocutaneous tissue for closure. However, in rare cases of bilateral peroneal magna artery, a vascularized fibula flap is not a suitable option given its potential risk of limb ischemia. We report the case of a 35-year-old lady with recurrent distal radius giant cell tumor with bilateral peroneal magna artery, whereby a vascularized fibula flap is not a reconstruction option for the distal radius. In this case, we opted to use the deep circumflex iliac artery (DCIA) flap to reconstruct the defect. This case highlights the importance of clinical assessment and Doppler evaluation before harvesting a vascularized fibula graft and the DCIA flap as an alternative option for reconstruction of the distal radius with a good functional outcome eight years post-operation.
