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

Though uncommon, fracture of neck of femur in children is a devastating injury due to the complications it may cause. Treatment depends on the age of the child, the displacement of the fracture and the type of fracture based on Delbet classification. Surgical treatment is indicated in displaced fractures. We report a case of an impacted fracture of neck of femur in a 12-year-old girl. The girl was managed non-operatively. The fracture united uneventfully. An impacted fracture of neck of femur is common in the adult population. To the best of our knowledge, this fracture pattern has not been reported in the paediatric age group.
