Evaluation of a combined posterior lateral and anteromedial approach in the treatment of terrible triad of the elbow: A retrospective study.
Trial report in Medicine, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
backgroundThis retrospective study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of a combined posterior lateral and anteromedial approach in the treatment of terrible triad of the elbow (TTE).
methodsTTE patients who received a combination of posterior lateral and anteromedial approach or other conservative treatments were included in the present study. The postoperative functions of the elbow and the severity of traumatic arthritis were assessed using the Mayo Elbow Performance Score (MEPS) and visual analog scale (VAS). Extension-flexion of elbow joint and rotation of forearm were also measured.
resultsA combined posterior lateral and anteromedial approach or other conservative treatments showed significant improvements in the activity of the elbow, MEPS, VAS, the excellent rate, and x-ray results. The postoperative healing time and complication rate of patients who received a combined posterior lateral and anteromedial approach significantly decreased compared to those who received other conservative treatments.
conclusionsPatients with TTE who received a combined posterior lateral and anteromedial treatment had an increased fracture healing rate, showed improved recovery of elbow functions and had fewer complications.
