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

Neglected hip fracture-dislocations are rare but still possible clinical situations, especially in developing countries. Some authors described skeletal traction and open reduction with internal fixation as a treatment for the abovementioned conditions. Despite the poor literature about this topic, total hip arthroplasty (THA) may be a feasible option in the treatment of neglected hip fracture-dislocations. We present a case of a 34-year-old Moroccan man reporting a 1-year neglected acetabular fracture with hip dislocation successfully treated with THA. The patient showed a significant improvement of pain, range of motion and his quality of life at 45 days. Our experience shows how a neglected acetabular fracture with hip dislocation can be successfully treated with THA. Considering the complexity of these cases, an accurate preoperative planning is mandatory and the prosthetic components' choice must be customised to the patient.
