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

Objective: To explore the characteristics and treatment of intertrochanteric fracture, which the proximal part displaced forwardly and angularly. Methods: Between March 2015 and March 2016, 40 patients with intertrochanteric fracture with forwardly and angularly displaced proximal part were treated with open reduction and intramedullary nailing fixation. There were 11 males and 29 females with the age of 56-87 years (mean, 75.7 years). The causes of injury included traffic accident in 1 case and fall in 39 cases. The body mass index was 18.9-33.8 (mean, 24.3). The time from injury to admission was 2-360 hours. The type of fracture according to AO-OTA classification was A1.2 type in 7 cases, A1.3 type in 1 case, A2.1 type in 6 cases, A2.2 type in 9 cases, A2.3 type in 12 cases, A3.2 type in 2 cases, and A3.3 type in 3 cases. The haemoglobin (Hb) value at admission and the lowest values before and after operation were recorded; the amount of the transfused-blood during hospital stay and visible blood loss around operation were recorded. The short-form 36 health survey scale (SF-36) before injury and at 12 weeks after operation were recorded for evaluating the quality of living; the visual analogue scale (VAS) score at admission and 2 days after operation were recorded for evaluating the reduction of pain, the union after operation were evaluated by X-ray film and clinical examination, and the Harris hip scale at 12 weeks were used to evaluate the injuried hip function. Results: The lowest Hb value before operation was (99.10±16.48) g/L, which was significantly lower than that at admission [(114.33±14.93) g/L] ( Conclusion: Intertrochanteric fracture with forwardly and angularly displaced proximal part is a type of unstable fracture, and it is difficult to reduction. It is necessary to achieve a good fracture reduction by means of auxiliary instrument. The anatomical alignment is the primary condition for the good effectiveness, and the anemia before and after the operation must be corrected.
