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

introductionThe approach-related morbidity rate in the care of pelvic fractures is still high. Endoscopic procedures are known to significantly reduce access-related complications. Recently, a new endoscopically assisted implantation technique for plate osteosynthesis on the anterior pelvic ring has been described as the " CASE REPORT: We present a case of a 29-year old male with a pelvic injury (AO type 61B2.3a) initially treated with a supraacetabular external fixator. After one week the definitive stabilization was performed by an endoscopically assisted symphyseal plating as well as a percutaneous iliosacral screw on the right side. One year after primary surgery, we performed an endoscopically assisted removal of the symphyseal plate using standard laparoscopic instruments.

resultsWe demonstrate the feasibility of an endoscopically assisted implant removal at the anterior pelvic ring. No complications occurred during the procedure. The patient was discharged after a regular time of surveillance and with an adequate decline of pain. DISCUSSION: While we were able to show that the endoscopically assisted implantation as well as the removal of a plate osteosynthesis on the anterior pelvic ring is possible, there is still further research necessary, especially regarding the development of specific endoscopic instruments. This should enable operating times similar to the standard open procedures.
