[Resection arthoplasty of the trapezium with ligament reconstruction and tendon interposition and variations].
Review in Operative Orthopadie und Traumatologie, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveCreation of a pain-free, flexible and stable (pseudo) joint between the carpus and the base of the 1st metacarpal bone. INDICATIONS: Painful carpometacarpal (CMC)‑I joint due to primary or secondary osteoarthritis, CMC‑I instability. CONTRAINDICATIONS: Carpal instability, local infection, tumors. SURGICAL TECHNIQUE: Resection of the trapezium (and of the arthritic joint surfaces in CMC‑I and STT [scaphoid-trapezium-trapezoid-joint]), stabilization of the base of the 1st metacarpal bone by suspension with a distally pedicled strip of the flexor carpi radialis tendon or variants thereof. POSTOPERATIVE MANAGEMENT: Immobilization in a splint for 3-5 weeks, followed by hand therapy.
resultsWorldwide for almost 40 years, regardless of the exact technique, almost always (90%) significant pain reduction, increased strength in the grip and slightly less in the pinch grip, very good mobility, 85-95% very satisfied patients and very good long-term results.
