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

backgroundAvulsion fracture of the coracoclavicular ligament accompanied by upward displacement of the medial fragment of the clavicle represents a unique fracture pattern, first described by Latarjet and colleagues in 1975. Due to the function of the underlying articulations and the ligaments found in the area, this fracture pattern results in a combination of horizontal and vertical instability that must be taken into consideration when treating. Several surgical techniques have been proposed but none has been proven superior. CASE SUMMARY: Herein, we present a Latarjet fracture of the distal clavicle treated with a single endobutton. A 45-year-old male underwent open surgical stabilization of distal clavicular fracture 15 days after trauma. After stabilization of the fracture, we applied a single endobutton, passing through the medial fragment, inferior fragment and coracoid process. The patient was observed for 14 mo postoperative, during which time he achieved union in all three fragments of the fracture and an excellent functional clinical score.

conclusionIn Latarjet fracture treatment, augmentation of the coracoclavicular ligament is the most important parameter for a favorable result.
