Beyond the Knife: Integrating Near-Infrared Fluorescence Imaging in Complex Gluteal Tumor Resection and Reconstruction.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Malignant chondroid syringoma (MCS) is an exceptionally rare cutaneous adnexal tumor arising from sweat gland epithelium. The standard treatment involves wide local excision with clear margins, frequently followed by regional lymphadenectomy and flap reconstructive surgery. In anatomically complex regions such as the gluteal area, achieving both oncologic safety and reliable soft-tissue coverage poses significant surgical challenges. In this context, fluorescence-guided surgery (FGS) has emerged as a valuable intraoperative adjunct. Utilizing indocyanine green (ICG), FGS enables real-time perfusion mapping and enhanced visualization of tissue vascularity, thereby improving flap planning and inset accuracy. This is the case of a 51-year-old female patient who underwent radical resection of a large gluteal MCS and ipsilateral lymphadenectomy, followed by advancement flap reconstruction guided by near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging using the novel IC-Flow 2™ system (Diagnostic Green Ltd, Munich, Germany).
