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 investigate the therapeutic effect of an ilioinguinal lobed flap in the early repair of facial and neck injuries caused by sulfuric acid burn. Methods: A retrospective analysis was carried out on the case of a 29-year-old female patient with sulfuric acid burns. Initially, a left ilioinguinal lobed flap measuring 25 × 8 cm Results: The facial and neck flap transplantation procedure was successfully completed, with complete postoperative flap survival. Both the left and right ilioinguinal donor sites were closed in a single-stage. Wound healing was satisfactory with minimal and concealed scarring. Postoperative facial and neck contour was satisfactory. Conclusion: Early-stage repair of sulfuric acid burn wounds using free flaps is effective. Based on the anatomical characteristics of perforating branches in the ilioinguinal region, a superficial fascial flap was harvested with lobulation of the secondary perforating branch, enabling multi-vessel supercharged anastomosis with intraoperative fluorescence imaging to facilitate early and successful reconstruction of acid burn wounds.
