Surgical treatment of an ischial tuberosity avulsion fracture with delayed presentation.
Article in Journal of clinical orthopaedics and trauma, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Avulsion fractures of the ischial tuberosity usually occur in skeletally immature athletes following eccentric contraction of the hamstrings. When displaced fractures are left untreated, subsequent non-union and proximal hamstring fibrosis may lead to chronic pain and reduced activity. However, the indications for and outcomes of operative fixation when presentation is delayed remain unclear. We report the case of a 14 year old male athlete who presented to our institution 6 weeks after sustaining a displaced ischial tuberosity avulsion fracture. He underwent open reduction and internal fixation using a cannulated screw system via a posterior approach, with excellent results at 18 months follow-up. We report our surgical findings in detail as well as a novel method for post-operatively assessing functional screw head prominence-the seated radiograph.
