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
introductionThe risk of fracture from a non-accidental injury is highest in the infant age group. A spiral fracture of the long bone can occur equally from accidental and non-accidental causes, meaning the clinical judgement of non-accidental injury in an infant is particularly challenging. This study aimed to assist in differentiating accidental, from non-accidental, injury in infants, by establishing whether correlation exists between geometry and torsional strength in the immature long bone.
methodsImmature porcine third and fourth metacarpals (n = 21) were imaged with a dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scanner to measure their linear bone mineral content (BMC
resultsThe mean failure strength of 11 successful tests was 13.71Nm (+/-SD 2.42Nm), with correlation to BMC
conclusionThis study is a novel attempt at estimating torsional strength of long bones in a specific paediatric age group using a size-matched animal bone model. It found a strong correlation between bone and fracture strength parameters over the BMC
