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

backgroundHow to perform minimally invasive surgery for Tile C pelvic fracture is a major problem in clinical practice. We performed minimally invasive surgery for Tile C pelvic fracture using anterior ring internal fixator systems combined with sacroiliac screw fixation.

objectiveTo investigate the advantages and efficacy of anterior ring internal fixator systems combined with sacroiliac screw fixation in the treatment of Tile C pelvic fracture.

methodsFrom May 2017 to May 2020, 27 patients with Tile C pelvic fracture who underwent anterior ring internal fixator system combined with sacroiliac screw fixation (group A) and 21 patients with Tile C pelvic fracture who underwent plate-screw system combined with sacroiliac screw fixation (group B) were retrospectively analyzed.

resultsAll 48 patients were followed up for more than 12 months, all fractures healed within 3-6 months. The operative time, intraoperative bleeding volume, blood transfusion volume, incision length, hospital stay, complication rate and Majeed score were 63.5 ± 10.7 min, 48.3 ± 27.9 ml, 0 ml, 4.5 ± 0.8 cm, 10.2 ± 2.7 d, 3.7% and 89.7 ± 4.6 points, respectively, in group A and 114.8 ± 19.1 min, 375 ± 315.8 ml, 266.7 ± 326.6 ml, 9.2 ± 3.9 cm, 20.9 ± 5.7 d, 23.8% and 88.7 ± 4.9 points, respectively, in group B. Combined excellent and good rates of the Matta evaluation and Majeed score were 100% in both groups. There were no significant differences in the Matta evaluation or Majeed score between the two groups (both P > 0.05), whereas the operative time, intraoperative bleeding volume, blood transfusion volume, incision length and hospital stay were significantly less in group A (all P < 0.05).

conclusionAn anterior ring internal fixator system combined with sacroiliac screw fixation can effectively treat Tile C pelvic fracture, and has advantages, including minimal invasiveness, simple operation, short operative time, safe and reliable features, fewer complications, short hospital stay and a good curative effect.
