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

backgroundThe aim of surgical treatment of fractures of the tibial head is an exact reconstruction of the joint plateau. For this purpose the method of balloon tibioplasty is now available in selected cases. This article and the accompanying video material illustrate the minimally invasive technique of tibioplasty using an actual example of patient treatment.

methodsThis technique offers gentle reduction by slow expansion of the balloon. The large balloon surface ensures that more bone can be lifted carefully at once in order to achieve the anatomical position. The positioning of the balloon requires surgical precision. Balloon reduction creates a well-defined bone cavity of known volume and is stabilized using calcium phosphate cement. Possible risks are cement leakage and secondary loss of reduction.

resultsThus far, results are promising, but long-term results are still lacking. Therefore, the indication should be made carefully and differentiated.
