Clavicle fixation screw impingement causing subclavian artery pseudoaneurysm.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Vascular injuries are an extremely rare complication of clavicle osteosynthesis, though several cases are reported in the literature. Cadaver studies have established recommended safe lengths for clavicle screws based on precise measurements of bone thickness and distance from subjacent neurovascular structures. We present the case of a 27-year-old female who underwent orthopedic plate and screw fixation of a clavicle fracture and subsequently sustained iatrogenic vascular injury from one of the screws. This necessitated endovascular repair and orthopedic revision. This case underscores the importance of selecting appropriate screws based on available imaging.
