Bilateral Neck Femur Fracture during Prison Confinement: An Atypical Mechanism of Injury.
Article in Journal of orthopaedic case reports. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionSimultaneous bilateral neck femur fracture is a rare entity that has been associated with metabolic disorders, osteoporosis, drugs, trauma, and seizure disorders. Its occurrence following a physical assault is very rare. We present a case report of a prisoner presenting with bilateral neck femur fracture following a physical assault during prison confinement. CASE PRESENTATION: This article presents the case of a 64-year-old male prisoner who sustained bilateral intracapsular fracture neck femur following the physical assault. Bilateral uncemented total hip replacement was done using a posterior approach at separate sittings. The patient made an uneventful recovery with return of pain-free normal range of motion at the time of discharge. The weight-bearing mobilization was allowed immediately following bilateral hip arthroplasty. Harris hip score at the time of discharge and the last follow-up of 12 months was 83.4 and 90.3, respectively. No wound-related or other systemic complications were noted.
conclusionbilateral fracture neck femur is commonly associated with metabolic conditions, rarely associated blunt trauma. This article highlights the need to suspect these fracture in all elderly cases presenting with hip pain.
