A Comparison of Dynamic Hip Screw and Two Cannulated Screws in the Treatment of Undisplaced Intracapsular Neck Fractures-Two-Year Follow-Up of 453 Patients.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
One of the most common fractures is that of the intracapsular femoral neck; however, the optimal implant for head-preserving treatment remains controversial. The aim of the study was to compare the outcomes of treating undisplaced intracapsular femoral neck fractures with either the dynamic hip screw (DHS) or the double cannulated screw fixation (CSFN). This retrospective cohort study analysed the data of 453 patients, with a mean age of 76.9 years, whose intracapsular fractures were treated with the DHS or CSFN between 2005 and 2013. The analysis focused on the rates of revision surgeries and complications; however, the impact of confounding exogenous factors, such as smoking and alcohol, were also considered. No significant difference was observed between the revision rates of DHS and CSFN (15.0% vs. 13.1%;
