The role of platelet rich plasma in management of fracture neck femur: new insights.
Article in International orthopaedics, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 papers, 5 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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 is evaluation of the efficacy of the use of platelet rich plasma (PRP) in management of femoral neck fractures. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis is a prospective study that was conducted between February 2010 and March 2013. A total of 60 patients were included in this study, categorized randomly into two groups. Group A included fracture neck femur treated by closed reduction and internal fixation with three cannulated screws and group B by addition of PRP to internal fixation. We planned to compare time of healing, need for revision and incidence of complications between the two groups.
resultsUnion occurred in 53 patients (88.33 %) in both groups, 25 cases (83.3 %) in group A and 28 cases (93.3 %) in group B, including three cases (5 %) with avascular necrosis (AVN): two in group A (6.7 %) and one case in group B (3.3 %).Revision surgery was done for six cases (20 %) in group A and for two cases (6.7 %) in group B. In both groups, all united cases had good to excellent clinical outcome as regards Harris hip score (HHS) at the end of the follow up.
conclusionDespite advances in surgical techniques and medical care, the risk of nonunion and avascular necrosis (AVN) after treatment of femoral neck fractures have not been changed appreciably in the last 50 years. Results of this study generally showed that both the median clinical and radiographic healing time were lower in group B compared to group A.
