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

Intraoperative 3D imaging has a marked impact on the surgical treatment of articular fractures. In theory, insufficient reduction of fracture fragments and malpositioning of implants can be corrected in the same session so that unnecessary secondary imaging and revision surgery can be avoided. Current evidence on the accuracy of 3D scans, however, relies on heterogeneous preclinical data and must be interpreted with caution. Every fourth 3D scan seems to lead to a repositioning of fracture fragments or implants, despite unproven sensitivity and specificity. The interaction between diagnostic accuracy and therapeutic consequences needs exploration before any conclusions on the (additional) benefits of intraoperative 3D imaging can be drawn.
