Trial report in Der Unfallchirurg, 2015. 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 steady rise in life expectancy of our population leads to an exponential increase in proximal femoral fractures. The growing increase of comorbidities in these patients requires continuous development of modern implant systems for internal fixation of proximal femoral fractures. MATERIALS AND
methodsIn this study we enrolled 116 patients with pertrochanteric femoral fractures who were treated with a proximal femoral nail (Targon PF, Aesculap) over a period of 1 year. The indications for this implant system were set at unstable fracture types. Data of the operative and postoperative course were collected prospectively.
resultsThe average age of the 116 predominantly female subjects was 77±14 years and the most commonly observed fracture subtype was 31-A1.2. The follow-up rate was 55 %. We observed a decrease in the postoperative modified Harris hip score of 22.7 %. The 1-year mortality was 21.6 %.
conclusionsThe results of this study showed a low rate of perioperative complications and implant loss anda decline in patient mobility was typically observed within 1 year.
