Treatment of Atypical Fracture of the Ulnar Diaphysis by Open Reduction and Internal Fixation with Teriparatide.
Article in Case reports in orthopedics, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Atypical fractures commonly arise in the subtrochanteric region or the femoral shaft, whereas those of the upper extremities are rare. Only 15 fractures in 13 patients have been described in the English literature. The management of such fractures has not been established. We describe a patient with an atypical fracture of the ulnar diaphysis, which required revision surgery to achieve the union of the fracture site. Teriparatide together with low-intensity pulsed ultrasound contributed to bone healing. Further studies are needed to determine the optimal strategy for treating atypical fractures of the ulna.
