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

A dog bite is the most common trauma among animal bites, and it has varying severity, from simple skin lacerations to defects in whole tissue layers. Considering the aesthetic and functional importance of the nose, an appropriate reconstruction should be conducted for large and full-thickness tissue defects. Although this is quite common, literature detailing surgical reconstruction is lacking, especially in domestic journals. A 45-year-old male patient visited an outpatient clinic due to nasal trauma caused by a dog bite. The patient's nose showed whole-layer tissue defects, with necrotic tissues at the periphery. Nasal reconstruction surgery was conducted using a forehead flap and ear cartilage composite graft. Pedicle division was conducted three weeks after primary surgery. The functional and aesthetic outcomes of the surgery were satisfactory. Our experience demonstrates that the forehead flap is a useful option for reconstructing a nose badly injured by a dog bite.
