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

Elbow dislocations are frequent and present with a broad spectrum of subsequent ligamentous and soft tissue injuries. Beside clinical examination, fluoroscopy, ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can specify the extent of the injuries and provide a foundation for decision-making between conservative and operative treatment. This article highlights the basic underlying biomechanics and anatomy, discusses the trauma mechanisms and presents clinical and imaging diagnostic procedures. Treatment algorithms for conservative and surgical treatment are presented in detail. In addition to acute instability, chronic instability of the elbow has recently been recognized as the cause of a large variety of symptoms, often resulting in significant functional impairment. The most commonly used techniques for reconstruction of the medial and lateral collateral ligaments and the rehabilitation protocols are described in detail.
