Long bone fractures in neonatal intensive care units of Afyonkarahisar: Five-year's experience.
Article in Turkish journal of obstetrics and gynecology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectiveTo determine the incidence of long bone fractures and the clinical features related with these fractures diagnosed in neonatal intensive care units (ICUs) within the province of Afyonkarahisar in Turkey. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe incidence of clavicular fractures was 2.4 in 1000 live births, and the incidence of femoral fractures was 0.32 in 1000 live births at the neonatal ICUs of Afyonkarahisar.
resultsThe incidence of birth trauma-related femoral fracture was 0.16 in 1000 live births, and the incidence of femoral fractures related with osteopenia of prematurity was 1.08 in 1000 live births. The mean gestational age at delivery was 39 weeks, the mean birth weight was 3.308 grams, and the male/female ratio was 3:2 for newborns with birth trauma-related femoral fractures. The mean gestational age at delivery was 30.4 weeks, the mean birth weight was 1256 grams, and the male/female ratio was 2:3 for newborns who had femoral fractures related with osteopenia of prematurity. Breech presentation was present in three newborns (60%), and cesarean section was the type of delivery in all newborns with birth trauma-related femoral fractures.
conclusionCesarean delivery does not reduce the risk for birth trauma-associated femoral fractures, and there is a risk for femoral fracture in cases of emergency cesarean performed for malpresentation. In order to overcome osteopenia of prematurity, calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin D should be supplemented in premature newborns with intrauterine growth retardation and receive long-term total parenteral nutrition.
