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

The extensor tendon apparatus is a network consisting of two different systems, an intrinsic and an extrinsic system, which are subdivided into eight different zones. Isolated injuries in zones 1 and 2 can be treated nonoperatively, whereas injuries in zones 3-8 usually require surgical treatment. A decision on the suture technique, suture material and postoperative follow-up care is made depending on the zone of the injury. The concomitant injuries of joints, bones, nerves and vessels must be taken into consideration and treated. The outcome of a tendon injury depends on the location and severity of the injury as well as the surgical technique and follow-up care. Exact knowledge of the anatomy with precise diagnostics, atraumatic, zone-dependent surgical and postoperative treatment, adequate rehabilitation and occupational therapy are essential for high quality management and preservation of fine motor skills and coordination of the whole hand.
