Postoperative rehabilitation in elbow surgery.
Article in Journal of clinical orthopaedics and trauma, 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 16 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
Postoperative rehabilitation plays a crucial role in the treatment of elbow pathology. Depending on the type of surgery, the elbow may need to be protected. As a general rule, the elbow should not be immobilized for a prolonged period after surgery. A removable splint can be used to protect the soft-tissues immediately postoperative and the patient is encouraged to remove the splint several times daily to mobilize the elbow. Dynamic articulated braces can be used to encourage movement while ligament or tendon repairs are being protected. Literature on postoperative elbow rehab is scarce. In this paper we provide practical guidelines for specific surgical procedures.
