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

Elbow injuries are common in children and while majority heal very well, some result in deformities of the elbow. Although deformities such as cubitus varus and non-progressive cubitus valgus are considered cosmetic by the paediatric orthopaedic surgeons and intentionally ignored, they are not always benign and can result in functional deficit due to instability, pain, tardy nerve palsies and osteoarthritis later in life. Similarly congenital and developmental conditions that do not cause major functional loss in childhood, become very disabling in adults due to increasing functional demands. Congenital radial head dislocation and radioulnar synostosis fall into this category. In this paper we discuss clinical presentation, treatment options and outcomes of common elbow conditions presenting later in the life.
