[Extensor tendon injuries of fingers in the region of the metacarpophalangeal joint (zone V)].
Review in Der Unfallchirurg, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Due to the exposed situation of the extension side of the metacarpophalangeal joint when the fingers are bent, injuries in this region are not uncommon. The extensor apparatus lies directly below the skin and the various parts can be easily injured. Due to the complex anatomical structure, the different clinical appearances and the various forms of treatment, injuries of the extensor tendons in the region of the metacarpophalangeal joint must be examined in a very differentiated manner. The not uncommonly occurring deviation phenomenon makes all injuries in zone V suspicious and special attention must be paid to them. The alarming multitude of revision surgeries with tenolysis, arthrolysis and restoration of the balance of extensor tendons or centering show that these operations are much more demanding than the way they are appreciated in the literature and by many surgeons (beginner's operation). The article presents the surgical treatment with suture techniques and reconstruction possibilities as well as the aftercare, in addition to the special anatomy and diagnostics.
