Review 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. It is linked to trial NCT06652659 (Risk Factors for Development of Non-union of Displaced Midshaft Clavicle Fractures), which is not on this map. Cited by 19 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

1 · What the graph read from 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.

Abstract

Clavicle fractures comprise approximately 3% of all adult fractures and there is evidence that the incidence is increasing. Fractures of the lateral and middle third of the clavicle present distinct challenges in both surgical fixation techniques and clinical outcome, as such they should be recognised as separate clinical entities. Despite conflicting evidence, most studies indicate that superior clinical results are found in patients with united clavicle fractures rather than those that go onto non-union. Furthermore there is level-1 evidence that operative treatment of clavicle fractures leads to significantly increased rates of union. Despite these findings, significant controversy still exists on which patients would benefit from primary fixation and those who could successfully be managed non-operatively. We present an evidence-based review of clavicle fracture management including surgical indications, techniques, and results.
