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

Background: Extensive injuries of hand extensor tendons combined with soft tissue loss represent a reconstructive challenge. Single- or multiple-stage reconstruction cannot be principally adopted, and a single surgical plan cannot uniformly treat every patient. Methods: The authors present a complex case of dorsal hand degloving injury accompanied by extensor tendons injury of the second, third, and fourth digits in zones II to VII, as well as radial wrist extensor tendons injury. The patient was treated in stages. Coverage was provided by a pedicled groin flap. Radial wrist extensors were reconstructed with a palmaris tendon graft, and the extensor digitorum communis was reconstructed with silicon rods and fascia lata grafts. Conclusions: A most satisfactory reconstruction was achieved.
