Brachial artery transection caused by closed elbow dislocation in a mature in-line skater: a case report with review of the literature.
Review in Knee surgery, sports traumatology, arthroscopy : official journal of the ESSKA, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
purposeRegarding skating injuries, isolated cases of closed elbow dislocations are reported only for children or teenage patients. Due to the anatomic proximity of neurovascular structures, elbow dislocations run the risk of concomitant injury, but its occurrence remains very rare.
methodWe describe the case of an advanced mature in-line skater with a complete disruption of the brachial artery caused by a closed elbow dislocation. The patient underwent emergency repair of the arterial injury with an autologous saphenous vein bypass.
resultsOne year after surgery, the patient recovered without any complaints and has returned to all activities of daily living as well as sporting activities.
conclusionThis case should sensitize the readers for concomitant vascular lesions when confronted with elbow dislocations. The mechanism of closed elbow dislocation in relation to skating sports is discussed with the current literature. We hold the view that accurate clinical assessment by orthopedic and vascular surgeons is absolutely necessary and immediate operative approach is the only acceptable treatment.
