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

background and purposeIn a previous study, we investigated the link between the femoral offset (FO) loss by trochanteric impaction (TI) and cut-out complication occurrence after pertrochanteric fractures. Three major factors are likely to drive to failure after intramedullary nailing (IN): fracture stability, reduction quality and osteosynthesis quality. We wanted to investigate the quality of the fracture reduction through the TI and the neck-shaft angle (NSA) measurement and correlate these parameters with the risk of mechanical failure occurrence. MATERIALS AND

methodsIt was a retrospective multicentric one case-one control match design study with age and gender randomization. The cases presented a mechanical failure of nailing: [Formula: see text] in percentage. Femoral rotation was taken into account, and all TI were rotation-corrected (TI

resultsTwenty-one cases and 21 controls were examined. The average TI

interpretationClosed reduction and exclusive implantation of IN do not seem optimal in case of FO or NSA restoration failure after pertrochanteric fractures. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III, case-control study.
