Trial report in Der Unfallchirurg, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe goal of treating proximal periprosthetic femur fractures in geriatric patients is a timely postoperative mobilization. The purpose of this study is to analyze the results after treating our patients by femoral stem exchange irrespective of fixation status. The study included 32 patients (2001-2009; mean age 82 years; Vancouver classification: 12 type B1, 16 type B2, and 4 type C).
methodAmbulatory status and activities of daily living pre- and postoperatively were compared. Retrospective data collection was performed by reviewing patients' charts. By interviewing patients, family members, and family physicians missing information was collected.
resultsA total of 22 patients (69%) achieved their pre-traumatic mobilization level; 22 of 26 patients (85%) were reintegrated into their pre-traumatic environment. A 16% (n=5) complication rate and an 87% 12-month survival rate were calculated.
conclusionThe concept of primary stable periprosthetic fracture care by using a revision prosthetic device potentially reduces complications related to postoperative non-weight-bearing without increasing the complication rate related to a more complex surgical procedure.
