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

The management of infected nonunion with bone loss is always challenging. The Masquelet technique is an excellent option available for us today. However, there are few reports of its use in the paediatric age group and no reports of its use especially in infected distal radius fractures or nonunion. We report on two children with infection and significant bone loss after open fractures of the distal radius which we have treated successfully using a modified Masquelet technique.
