Use of the Groin Flap in Traumatic Hand Injuries.
Article in Revista brasileira de ortopedia, 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
Objective: To analyze the use of the groin flap in the treatment of traumatic injuries that are not very extensive, with tissue loss in the wrist and hand region. Methods: We performed 14 flaps from the inguinal region to reconstruct traumatic hand injuries. The age of the sample ranged from 21 to 56 years, and all patients were male. Results: Complete flap survival was recorded in all limbs. In seven patients, there were complications: in two, partial necrosis, for which flap debridement was necessary, and the area was covered with a skin graft. In four cases, marginal necrosis occurred, which later healed spontaneously. Partial loosening at the receiving area was observed in one case in the first week, requiring complete suturing. Conclusion: Even with the advent of microsurgical techniques, the groin flap remains a good and safe method to repair hand injuries with tissue loss, with or without loss of bone tissue.
