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

Severely crushed and contaminated pediatric amputations present unique challenges for limb salvage, especially when critical structures are damaged. We report two pediatric cases-one hand and one foot amputation-successfully replanted using meticulous microsurgical techniques. A key component of our approach was microsurgical debridement under high magnification, which enabled removal of deeply embedded contaminants without sacrificing additional tissue. Both patients achieved limb survival and functional recovery after long-term follow-up. Detailed sensory outcomes, range of motion, skin coverage management, postoperative microbiological findings, and antibiotic regimens are presented. These cases underscore the importance of precise debridement, early revascularization, and comprehensive postoperative care in pediatric contaminated crush amputations.
