Effective combination of bone substitute and screws in the jail technique: a biomechanical study of tibial depression fractures.

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
purposeThe aim of this study was to investigate a new drillable calcium phosphate cement (Norian drillable Synthes GmbH) as a bone substitute either alone or in combination with screws in the jail technique (Petersen et al. Unfallchirurg Mar 109(3):219-234, 2006; Petersen et al. Unfallchirurg Mar 109(3):235-244, 2006) with regard to the primary stability in lateral tibial depression fractures.
methodsLateral depression fractures of the tibial plateau were created in a biomechanical fracture model. After reduction they were stabilised with bone substitute (group one), bone substitute with additional four screws in the jail technique (group two) or four screws only (group three). Displacement under cyclic loading, stiffness and maximum load in load-to-failure tests were determined.
resultsThe groups with the bone substitute showed a lower displacement of the depressed articular fragment under cyclical loading and a higher stiffness. The maximum load was higher for the groups with screws.
conclusionsOnly the combination of bone substitute and screws prevented secondary loss of reduction and, at the same time, provided enough stability under maximum load.
