Effects of intramedullary nailing fixation on quality of life and joint function in patients with femoral neck fractures.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveThis study intended to investigate the changes in quality of life and joint function after intramedullary nailing fixation in patients with femoral neck fractures.
methodsA total of 38 patients with femoral neck fractures received surgical treatment from February 2016 to November 2018 were enrolled as study subjects, and were divided into the intramedullary nailing group (IIN group, n=13) and the plate fixation group (PO group, n=25). The efficacy, general surgical indices, postoperative complications, hip function scores and imaging results were compared between the two groups.
resultsThe response rate of the IIN group was 100.00%, significantly higher than 72.00% of the PO group (
conclusionIntramedullary nailing fixation in patients with femoral neck fractures has the advantages of a shorter time in bed and better functional recovery, lower incidence of complications and higher long-term joint function with better quality of life.
