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

Venous malformations of the hand represent a clinical and therapeutic challenge due to anatomical complexity and functional and aesthetic impact. We report the case of a 13-year-old female patient with a venous malformation of the hand, treated with a combined approach using Nd:YAG 1064 nm transdermal laser and 1% polidocanol foam sclerotherapy. The combination of photocoagulation and sclerotherapy proved safe and effective in a superficial and localized lesion. This case underscores the relevance of combined therapy as a minimally invasive alternative for venous malformations of the hand, highlighting the importance of individualized treatment according to lesion location, depth, and extent.
