Management Challenges in Atypical Femoral Fractures: A Case Report.
Article in Annals of geriatric medicine and research, 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 78-year-old woman presented with an atypical femoral fracture of her right femur associated with a left thigh stress fracture following 9 years of bisphosphonate therapy. The fracture was managed with femoral nailing. However, she represented 3 years later with peri-prosthetic infection, worsening of the left-side stress fracture, and low bone turnover in a bone metabolic study, consistent with an ongoing bisphosphonate effect. This case highlights the increased rate of postoperative complications in atypical femoral fractures even years after surgery as well as the challenging management issues for contralateral fracture and the risk of missing bilateral fractures.
