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

objectiveReconstruction of intra-articular impression fractures of the middle phalanx by percutaneous reduction over a small dorsal cortical window. Stabilization by lattice-like arranged K‑wires. INDICATIONS: Impression fractures of the base of the middle phalanx with or without dislocation in the proximal interphalangeal joint. CONTRAINDICATIONS: Fractures extending to the shaft of the middle phalanx. SURGICAL TECHNIQUE: By a cortical window at the dorsum of the middle phalanx (through the tendon free triangle) the impression fracture is reduced from the medullary cavity. Reduction is secured and the articular surface is supported by lattice-like arranged K‑wires. POSTOPERATIVE MANAGEMENT: Thermoplastic splint for the finger for 6 weeks, subsequently K‑wire removal, active range of motion exercises and hand occupational therapy.

resultsIn two case series already published, good clinical and radiological results were reported. No complications were detected in either series.
