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 4-year-old healthy girl sustained a composite dog bite avulsion of the tip of her nose that was intraoperatively replanted without vascular reanastomosis 2 hours and 45 minutes after the avulsion. The replanted tip initially appeared viable, but became dusky at 16 hours and cyanotic at 32 hours postreplantation. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy commenced at 40 hours postreplantation, and intermittent normobaric oxygen was added at night after the fourth hyperbaric oxygen treatment. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy was dosed according to tissue response/appearance and signs of patient oxidative stress with progressive improvement in viability. The patient received 30 hyperbaric oxygen treatments in 26 days and normobaric oxygen from postoperative day 3 to 13 days after the last hyperbaric oxygen treatment. The replantation achieved 100% survival and an excellent cosmetic result.
