Mini-Open Partial Fasciotomy for Dupuytren Contracture: Time to Reintervention.

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
Background In younger patients with Dupuytren contracture, recurrence is common over time. Mini-open fasciotomy is a surgical approach that maintains virgin tissue at the palmar digital crease. This study's primary aim is to determine time to repeat intervention after mini-open partial fasciotomy for Dupuytren contracture and to report the rate of postoperative complications.MethodsRetrospectively, all patients who underwent minimally invasive open partial fasciotomy for Dupuytren contracture with a pretendinous cord under the care of a single surgeon from 2015 to 2022 were identified. Degree of contracture of the metacarpophalangeal (MP) and proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joints were recorded preoperatively and at each subsequent office visit. Postoperative complications, recurrence of flexion contracture (>20°), and reoperation were recorded.ResultsTwenty-eight patients undergoing procedures on 39 digits with 44 joint contractures were included, consisting of 34 fingers with MP contractures and 5 fingers with both MP and PIP contractures. The median follow-up was 5.0 (interquartile range [IQR] = 3.6-6.9) years. The median preoperative MP contracture was 47.5° (IQR = 35°-62°), which corrected with a median contracture of 15.0° at the final measurement, 2.4 years postoperatively. The median preoperative PIP contracture was 52.5° (IQR = 39°
