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

Pertrochanteric fractures are one of the most common injuries in the elderly and due to the demographic changes the incidence and importance of this fracture entity will even increase in the future. The dynamic hip screw (DHS) has been used as the gold standard implant in the treatment of pertrochanteric femoral fractures for many years but recent studies have shown that cephalomedullary nails have some advantages. Due to the high incidence, operative treatment of these fractures is part of the standard repertoire of trauma surgeons and this article therefore provides an overview of existing knowledge and new trends in the treatment of pertrochanteric femoral fractures.
