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

Objective: To investigate the effect of different degrees of wound eversion on scar formation at the donor site of anterolateral thigh flaps by a prospective clinical randomized controlled study. Methods: According to the degree of wound eversion, the clinical trial was designed with groups of non-eversion (group A), eversion of 0.5 cm (group B), and eversion of 1.0 cm (group C). Patients who underwent anterolateral femoral flap transplantation between September 2021 and March 2023 were collected as study subjects, and a total of 36 patients were included according to the selection criteria. After resected the anterolateral thigh flaps during operation, the wound at donor site of each patient was divided into two equal incisions, and the random number table method was used to group them ( Results: In group C, 1 case had poor healing of the incision after operation, which healed after debridement and dressing change; 1 case had incision necrosis at 3 months after operation, which healed by second intention after active dressing change and suturing again. The other incisions in all groups healed by first intention. At 6 months after operation, the PSAS, OSAS, and patient satisfaction scores were the lowest in group B, followed by group A, and the highest in group C. The differences between the groups were significant ( Conclusion: Moderate everted closure may reduce the formation of hypertrophic scars at the incision site of the anterior lateral thigh flap to a certain extent.
