Suicidal jumper's fracture reduced with hyperextension and the joystick method: A case report.
Article in Trauma case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. 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
Suicidal jumper's fractures are transversal fractures of the upper sacrum. The treatment for this type of fracture remains controversial. We present a case of a Roy-Camille type 2 suicidal jumper's fracture treated with reduction by hyperextension of the lumbosacral junction, the joystick method, and percutaneous fixation on the day of injury. After the operation, the sacral canal at the S2 level was enlarged and both lower extremities began to move gradually. At 19 days after the injury, direct decompression via sacral laminectomy was performed to promote further neurological improvement. At 10 months after the injury, cauda equina syndrome and radicular symptoms were completely resolved. Considering its minimal invasiveness, we recommend trying hyperextension and the joystick method to treat Roy-Camille type 2 suicidal jumper's fractures on the day of injury.
