The Two Facing Square Flaps Method for Release of Anterior and Posterior Axillary Line Burn Contractures.
Article in European burn journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
With improved burn outcomes and survival rates, the focus of management in large burns has shifted from merely survival towards optimizing form and function for the burn survivor. Due to its unique structural features and functional demands however, the axilla is prone to contracture formation, and remains complex to reconstruct. Where contractures involve both the posterior and anterior axillary lines, the two facing square flaps method is a suitable choice for a wide range of patients. The flap design is flexible, and is relatively safe with a sufficient blood supply. Superior lengthening of approximately 3-4 times can be achieved, and is maintainable. In this surgical technique paper, we describe the strategy of the two facing square flaps, and present two patterns of its application, with representative cases of the local flap method.
