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

Congenital dislocation of the knee (CDK) is a rare deformity presenting itself either as an isolated idiopathic entity or in the context of syndromes like arthrogryposis, myelodysplasia or Larsen syndrome. Patients can be diagnosed clinically after childbirth based on hyperextension of the knee. Confirmation of the diagnosis is done by X-ray or sonography. Many theories concerning the pathogenesis have been proposed since CDK was described; according to recent literature fibrosis and contracture of the m. quadriceps is the most likely reason. Therapy should start as soon as possible after birth, conservatively using redressing casts or operatively in syndromal conditions aiming for reduction. The prognosis concerning re-dislocation is benign; a good outcome was shown for idiopathic CDK.
