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 tear-off of the apophysis of the proximal tibia is a rare injury (< 1 % of all apophysal lesions). It mainly affects male adolescents (14,6 years). Main causes are concentric and eccentric stress during sport activity. Morbus Osgood-Schlater seems to be a predisposing factor.

aimUp-to-date survey of pathogenesis, diagnostics and treatment strategies. MATERIAL AND

methodsLiterature research (level III and IV studies) as well as own results.

resultsThe affected patients are mostly male (97 %), type III fractures are most frequently seen (48 %). Accompanying injuries are not to be missed (10 %). The treatment usually consists of surgery by means of an open reposition and internal refixation, recently also minimal invasi. The results are mainly very good to good, approximately 95 % reach their old level of activity again. Almost one third of the patients develop a mostly slight complication.

conclusionThe acute tear-off of the apophysis of the proximal tibia is an infrequent disease. In dislocated injuries the standard procedure is the open reposition and the internal fixation. Lesions within the knee are particularly to be expected in intraarticular fractures und must not be missed. A very good to good result is to be expected with correct treatment, momentous complications are all together rare.
