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.

2 · The registry

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

Scapholunate ligament is the most commonly injured ligament in the wrist and requires accurate diagnosis and treatment. It presents with pain, stiffness and can lead to carpal instability as well as degenerative arthritis if left untreated, with subsequent loss of function and disability. There are several management options currently available but there is no consensus on how best to manage a wrist with chronic sequelae of scapholunate ligament injury. This review explores available evidence in the literature on optimal treatment options including non-operative and operative procedures, relevant surgical techniques and their associated outcomes. A summary of the current concepts in the management of Chronic Scapholunate ligament injury is presented.
