Stability evaluation of anterior external fixation in patient with unstable pelvic ring fracture: a finite element analysis.
Article in Annals of translational medicine, 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
backgroundThe pelvic ring fractures (PRF) are commonly induced by the high-energy impact and will lead to unstable and sever injures. This study is aimed to explore the stability of anterior external fixation in treating pelvis fracture and evaluate the possibility for these kinds of patients to reduce bedridden time.
methodsA patient with Tile B3 pelvis fracture was chosen in the research and the corresponding digital model was reconstructed according to the CT images and 3D scanning. Four angles of pelvis under vertical compression were employed in the finite element (FE) analyses. The stress distribution and micro-motion displacement were calculated to validate the instability of pelvis.
resultsThe stress applied on the pelvis was ranged from 4.296 to 8.364 MPa in all postures. The stress applied on pins was less than 7.011 MPa during reclining, and reached 28.29 MPa when standing. The micro-motion displacement in reclining posture was ranged from 0.005 to 0.087 mm. The value increased to more than 1mm in standing posture.
conclusionsIt was safety for patients with pelvis fracture to sit vertical or recline on the bed during nursing or having treatment, but standing or walking will generate inappropriate micro-motion. The existence of external fixation can reduce the possibility of complications caused by long-term bedridden.
