[Rupture of the distal biceps tendon].
Article in Der Unfallchirurg, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
With an incidence of 3% of all biceps tendon injuries, rupture of the distal biceps tendon is a rare injury but can be associated with significant functional impairment of the elbow. In case of a complete rupture, the diagnosis can be made clinically with a pronounced power deficit, in particular for supination of the forearm. In cases of unclear symptoms magnetic resonance imaging should be included. Regarding the therapeutic approach, there is general consensus in the current literature that surgical treatment with anatomical reconstruction of the tendon footprint is superior to the conservative approach. Various surgical techniques with good biomechanical and clinical results are currently available but no clear superiority of a single technique has so far been demonstrated.
