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

objectiveTo compare the effectiveness of proximal femoral nail anti-rotation (PFNA) combined with minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis (MIPPO) and Intertan intramedullary nail fixation by closed reduction in the treatment of AO/Orthopaedic Trauma Association (AO/OTA) type 31-A3.3 intertrochanteric fracture with incomplete lateral wall.

methodsThe clinical data of 54 patients with AO/OTA type 31-A3.3 intertrochanteric fracture who met the selection criteria and were admitted between January 2012 and January 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. According to different surgical methods, the patients were divided into group A (24 cases with lateral wall reconstruction by MIPPO combined with PFNA internal fixation) and group B (30 cases with Intertan intramedullary nail fixation by closed reduction only). There was no significant difference between the two groups (

resultsThe wounds of the two groups healed by first intention, without infection, skin deformity, and other incision complications. The operation time and intraoperative blood loss of group A were significantly more than those of group B, and the time to weight-bearing and fracture healing were significantly shorter than those of group B (

conclusionFor the AO/OTA type 31-A3.3 intertrochanteric fracture with incomplete lateral wall, compared with the closed reduction Intertan intramedullary nail fixation, the incidence of internal fixation failure after MIPPO reconstruction with lateral wall combined with PFNA fixation was lower, the time to weight-bearing was earlier, and the postoperative function was better.
