Negative pressure wound therapy in the setting of acute abdominal evisceration secondary to major thoracoabdominal burns.

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
Negative pressure wound therapy has allowed for improved management of critical ill patients who requiring abdominal exploration by minimizing operation length, expediting resuscitation, and avoiding unnecessary resections. The use of this vital resource is often limited in burn patients with involvement of the thoracoabdominal wall due to difficulty with maintaining a seal necessary for the negative pressure. This report highlights the case of a 57-year-old patient who sustained significant thoracoabdominal burns and suffered an acute evisceration of small bowel following a debridement. The patient required an emergent return to the operating room and temporary abdominal closure in order to allow for a second look laparotomy. We detail the use of ostomy/barrier rings in order to establish a seal necessary for the negative pressure wound therapy. This novel technique has the potential to expand the use of temporary abdominal closure using negative pressure wound therapy in clinically injured burn patients.
