Koebner Phenomenon Psoriasis after Right Ankle Free Flap Reconstruction.
Article in Archives of plastic surgery, 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
Isomorphic cutaneous lesion formation in response to trauma in patients with prior cutaneous disease is known as the Koebner phenomenon. To our knowledge, there are no reports of the phenomenon occurring after lower extremity flap reconstruction. A 24-year-old male with no significant medical history underwent right ankle reconstruction using an anterolateral thigh flap following wide excision of a low-grade sarcoma. His recovery was mostly uneventful; however, 6 months later, he developed well-demarcated, erythematous plaques with white scales over both the flap and donor sites. The dermatology department diagnosed him with plaque psoriasis attributed to Koebnerization. Topical corticosteroids were prescribed and resulted in complete resolution within 2 days. At his 8-month follow-up, all surgical sites had healed with no evidence of recurrence. This case highlights a rare occurrence of the Koebner phenomenon following free flap reconstruction in a patient without prior personal or familial history of psoriasis. Early detection and treatment of postoperative dermatoses in partnership with dermatology is crucial to avoiding unnecessary intervention and achieving successful outcomes without complications.
