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

introductionWe treated proximal tibia fractures according to our own CT based classification in which we divided these fractures into different varus and valgus fractures. We also provide a guide for reduction of these fractures and the sequence in which different fractured fragments of proximal tibia should be fixed. MATERIALS AND

methodsPatients were identified from the hospital records, treated according to classification based upon mechanism of injury, from August 2014 to December 2016. Patients were called for follow up in outpatient department for evaluation. Functional evaluation was done according to Rasmussen functional grading score.

resultsTwenty one patients of proximal tibia fracture were treated between august 2014 to December 2016 according to our method. There were 17 male and 4 female. Age ranged from 20 year to 65 year (average 35.19 year). 17 patients were turned up for latest follow up who were analysed for Rasmusssen functional grading score. 14 patients had excellent and 3 patients had good function according to Rasmussen functional grading score.

conclusionsOur classification system provides a guide for reduction of proximal tibia fractures and also tells us the sequence of different fracture fragments.
