[The PHILOS plate-also an indication for osteosynthesis of the distal tibia?]
Article in Der Unfallchirurg, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
According to the manufacturer's instructions the application of a PHILOS plate is restricted to humeral fractures. An extension to other anatomical regions of the body is not provided; however, based on the anatomical design of the plate it was observed that the application of this plate also appears to be possible for the distal tibia. This article reports three different osteosyntheses by a reverse PHILOS plate on the medial malleolus and on the distal tibia posteriorly with a short and a long PHILOS plate design. In summary, the applications have so far resulted in primary wound healing with correct consolidation of the fractures.
