[A minimally invasive technique for removal of a firmly fixed Küntscher nail in primary hip arthroplasty].
Article in Der Unfallchirurg, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
This article reports the case of an 80-year-old male patient who presented to this hospital with symptomatic arthritis of the left hip. The special feature of this case was a Küntscher nail in the left femur that had been in situ for more than 50 years. Before implantation of the total hip arthroplasty the nail first had to be removed. As the Küntscher nail is a rarity nowadays there is no standardized procedure for the removal of such a nail. This case report describes a minimally invasive possibility to remove a Küntscher nail in total hip arthroplasty.
