Thumb Duplication (Wassel Type IIB): A Rare Case Report Highlighting Surgical Strategy and Functional Outcomes.
Article in Plastic and reconstructive surgery. Global open, 2026. 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
Polydactyly occurs in 1 in 1000 live births and is one of the most common congenital anomalies of the hands and feet, according to a thorough literature review. It may be an isolated anomaly, part of a syndromic condition, or associated with other congenital disorders. Clinical presentation can range from a fully functional extra digit to a small, underdeveloped appendage. Different genetic and embryological factors affect limb development, resulting in diverse phenotypic presentations in affected individuals. We present a rare case of type IIB radial polydactyly, discuss its treatment and complexities, and emphasize the need for more research and clinical reporting.
