[Fractures of the carpal bones without the scaphoid bone].
Article in Der Unfallchirurg, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
With the exception of the relatively frequent fractures of the scaphoid bone, isolated fractures of individual carpal bones are rare. Because these injuries are uncommon and because of the complex anatomy and function of the carpus, treatment of carpal bone fractures can be challenging. Carpal bone fractures generally occur in young, sports active and professional patients, can be easily overlooked in plain radiographs and are frequently associated with ligamentous instability, neurovascular injuries and tendon lesions. Small posttraumatic alterations of the precisely aligned carpal structure can cause chronic pain and functional impairment. Therefore, if a wrist fracture is suspected a thorough clinical examination and appropriate differentiated imaging is always necessary, at the end of which a fracture can be excluded or an appropriate conservative or surgical treatment is initiated, with the aim of restoration of carpal anatomy and function.
