Late Repair, One Year After a Knee Twisting Injury, of a Missed Femoral Trochlea Osteochondral Fragment, With Bioabsorbable Nails, in a 14-Year-Old Boy.
Article in Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons. Global research & reviews, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
The authors report a case of a late repair of a missed, large, osteochondral fracture of the femoral trochlea in a 14-year-old boy due to lateral patellar dislocation after a twisting injury of the knee a year ago. The late-1 year after the knee injury-imaging assessment of the patient regarding radiograph images, CT scan, and MRI was misleading, misinterpreted, and failed to reveal this osteochondral fracture. The free osteochondral fragment was detected during diagnostic arthroscopy. Open reduction and fixation of the osteochondral fragment with bioabsorbable pins were done, and healing was achieved within an acceptable time. The patient's clinical and imaging examination with knee MRI, a year after the surgical treatment, was highly satisfactory. Fixation with bioabsorbable pins showed to be a worthwhile option in this case. The technique used was straightforward, with excellent short- and long-term results. Bioabsorbable pins may be used to restore successfully even an old, large osteochondral fracture in the immature skeleton.
