How to extract a broken cephalomedullary nail safely? A case presentation and review of the literature.
Review in Acta orthopaedica et traumatologica turcica, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Application rate of cephalomedullary nails in treatment of pertrochanteric fractures has been increased. Although cephalomedullary nail breakage is rare, the occurrence is catastrophic and removingdistal fragment of the broken nail is always a challenging issue. Many techniques have been described for extracting broken nails, but most of them are used for conventional femoral nails. Furthermore, many of these techniques require specific extraction devices. Herein, we introduce a simple technique to remove the distal fragment of broken cephalomedullary nail with the least equipment requirements.
