Mechanical Evaluation of Titanium Plates for Osteoesynthesis High Neck Condylar Fracture of Mandible.
Article in Materials (Basel, Switzerland), 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
backgroundIn the literature no information about plates for the high-neck mandibular condylar osteosynthesis could be found despite that 30 plate designs have been published. The main course consider the basal condylar or diacapitular fractures. The aim of the study was to test mechanically all available designs (only 4 of 30 was proper) on polyurethane mandibles using an individually designed clamping system.
methodsForces required for a 1 mm displacement of fixed fracture fragments and incidents of screw loosening were recorded.
resultsIt has occured that dedicated plates for fixation are much weaker than set of two straight plates (p<0.0001). General observation is the bigger plate and more screws, the better rigid stable osteosynthesis of mandibular condyle, however, there are limitations in plates design for high-neck fractures resulted in restricted operation field.
conclusionDouble straight plates occured to be the best mechanical fixation for high-neck fractures of the mandibular condyle. Maybe other existing plates could be used but only after prebending or that fracture required novel dedicated plates design.
