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

Objective: To achieve satisfying function and appearance of nasal tip after tumor resection. Methods: This retrospective study included patients with nasal tip tumors admitted between January 2010 and January 2024. A standardized data collection template was used to collect related variables. Tumors were all resected according to the guidelines, and the defects were repaired with different flaps. For nasal tip soft tissue defects smaller than 1 cm, a horn-shaped flap was used; for defects with a diameter of 1-2 cm, the bilobed flap was applied; for defects larger than 2 cm, frontonasal flap was designed. Results: Twenty-eight patients were included in this study. All the skin defects were repaired according to the one-stage reconstruction strategy. All patients achieved primary healing without severe complications. Slight edema occurred in 5 patients, and slight infection occurred in 2 patients, all healed with dressing change in several days. Ideal aesthetic results achieved without distortion of the nasal tip or alar rim. During the follow-up period of 3-11 months, no tumor occurrence was observed. Conclusion: The reconstruction strategy reported in this study is a promising way in the repair of nasal tip soft tissue defect with little complication and satisfying outcomes.
