Combining Historic and Modern Concepts: How the Delay Phenomenon Enhances Propeller Flap Success in Large Dorsolumbar Soft Tissue Reconstruction.
Article in Plastic and reconstructive surgery. Global open, 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
The authors present a novel 2-staged approach for complex dorsolumbar wound reconstruction in a multioperated spine patient with limited local flap options and contraindications for free flap reconstruction due to arteriosclerosis and cardiac issues. A delayed dorsal propeller flap was first autonomized to enhance perfusion, followed by elevation and mobilization 4 weeks later. This approach combined the historic delay phenomenon with modern propeller flap techniques, achieving durable coverage and infection control. The case highlights the value of integrating traditional and innovative surgical methods for complex reconstructions.
