Madelung Deformity of the Wrist Managed Conservatively.
Article in Cureus, 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
A 19-year-old female presented with pain, deformity, and slightly restricted left wrist motion for five years with gradual progression. Physical examination revealed volar subluxation of the left hand, dorsally prominent ulnar styloid, radial and dorsal bowing of the distal forearm, and mild restriction in wrist dorsiflexion. Radiographs showed a failure of ossification of the ulnar side of the distal radial epiphysis, increased radial inclination angle, dorsal subluxation of the distal ulna, V-shaped proximal carpal row due to proximal migration of the lunate, and increased interosseous space. A diagnosis of Madelung deformity of the left wrist was made. Conservative management with oral analgesics, activity restriction, and a volar splint was done as the patient was skeletally mature, had only mild pain with no functional limitation or gross deformity. At the six-month follow-up, she was doing well with decreased pain and no new complaints.
