Bilateral subtrochanteric stress riser fractures following percutaneous screw fixation of femoral neck stress fractures: a literature review and case report.
Review in European journal of orthopaedic surgery & traumatology : orthopedie traumatologie, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Hip and groin pain in patients at-risk for femoral neck stress fracture demand a careful workup including advanced imaging in the setting of normal radiographs. A delay in diagnosis can lead to fracture displacement, which negatively impacts outcomes. Non-displaced tension-sided fractures and displaced fractures warrant operative fixation, while non-displaced compression-side fractures can be managed conservatively. Fixation with a sliding hip screw or cephalomedullary nail is recommended over cannulated screws. In addition, all patients should undergo a metabolic workup to identify correctable parameters. We present a rare case of bilateral compression-sided basicervical femoral neck stress fractures in a non-compliant osteoporotic patient who was treated with cannulated screws. The postoperative course was complicated by bilateral subtrochanteric stress riser fractures requiring revision fixation, which could have been prevented with use of a different implant.
