Successful Salvage Therapy of Late-onset Arterial Disorders due to Recurrent Vasospasms Following Free Flap Transfer under the IL-6 and TNF-α Signaling-downregulated Environment: A Case Report.
Article in Journal of plastic and reconstructive surgery, 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 77-year-old woman who had been taking iguratimod and sarilumab for rheumatoid arthritis for 3 months had gas gangrene. After hospitalization, she underwent two debridement surgeries, one drainage procedure, and a free latissimus dorsi musculocutaneous flap transfer for the resulting tissue defect on the oral cavity through the temple. Following the free flap surgery, she experienced flap ischemia, possibly caused by the vasospasms of the intraflap and recipient arteries on postoperative days 5 and 6. These immunomodulating drugs might cause vasospasms by downregulating the interleukin-6 and/or tumor necrosis factor-α signaling pathway(s). Recent developments in antirheumatic drug therapy have increased the chances of performing microvascular surgeries on patients with inhibited immune systems, and this trend will continue or will be reinforced in the future. Close monitoring of the biochemical and clinical status of the microvascular environment is necessary.
