Bilateral Fracture Clavicles occurring Simultaneously and treated with Intramedullary Fixation.

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
introductionThe standard treatment for clavicle fractures non operative but surgical management is essential in certain specific indications. The purpose of this study is to report a not very commonly seen bilateral fracture of a clavicle in a young female patient treated with intramedullary fixation. CASE REPORT: A 23 year old female patient sustained a bilateral clavicle fracture as a result of direct blow to shoulder and was treated with intramedullary K wires on both sides in single sitting. Postoperatively arm was maintained in a sling for 3 weeks. The implant was removed after a month when radiographs showed good bridging callus. After 8 weeks of fixation, she achieved full range of motion in both shoulders without any pain and was thus subsequently allowed to return to her daily activities.
conclusionFor bilateral fractures clavicle, intramedullary fixation with K wire is a safe and effective modality for good pain relief and rapid recovery of range of motion. We did not encounter any complications.
