Arthroscopy Assisted Reduction Percutaneous Internal Fixation versus Open Reduction Internal Fixation for Low Energy Tibia Plateau Fractures.
Synthesis in Scientific reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
The purpose of our study was to compare the curative effect of two surgical methods for Schatzker type I to III tibia plateau fractures, arthroscopy assisted reduction percutaneous internal fixation (ARIF) and open reduction internal fixation (ORIF), with the intent of evaluating the quality of evidence to assist treatment selection. Searches of PubMed, Cochrane and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) databases were performed to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and quasi-RCTs comparing ARIF and ORIF regarding the following outcomes: functional outcomes, perioperative complications and post-traumatic osteoarthritis. Odds ratios (OR) and weighted mean differences (MDs) were pooled using either a fixed-effects model or random-effects model, depending on the heterogeneity of the trials included in the analysis. 19 RCTs and one quasi-RCT provided the data from 1272 patients. ARIF was associated with better functional outcomes, a lower risk of perioperative complications, and lower risk of post-traumatic osteoarthritis. After consideration of the quality of evidence of the included studies, the advantages provided by ARIF are not substantive over ORIF for the treatment of Schatzker type I to III tibia plateau fractures, except reducing the risk of perioperative complications.
