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

We are reporting on a case of an index radial collateral ligament tear repaired with a titanium Mitek bone suture anchor. The development of cystic radiographic changes and increased pain and weakness led to suture anchor removal at 10 months post-repair. Periprosthetic osteolysis due to titanium-induced osteoclastogenesis and micromotion was suspected to be the cause. This case report provides a dual focus by stressing the importance of the diagnosis and treatment of this underreported ligament tear and highlighting our osteolysis complication via the mechanism of titanium-induced osteoclastogenesis for future therapeutic preventive measures.
