Rapidly Destructive Coxopathy With Femoral Head Fracture That Is Similar to a Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysis in an Elderly Woman: A Case Report.

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
Slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) generally occurs in adolescents but rarely in adults. Rapidly destructive coxopathy (RDC) is characterized by rapid joint destruction, including disruption of the joint at the femoral head and acetabulum as well as reduction of the joint space, within six to 12 months. The mechanism of RDC is likely multifactorial but has not yet been identified. Moreover, there are no reports of displaced femoral head fractures similar to an SCFE associated with RDC. We report a rare case of RDC with femoral head fracture that is similar to SCFE in an 86-year-old woman. Although the exact cause of the femoral head fracture is unknown, it can develop into RDC. Awareness of orthopedic surgeons regarding this condition is crucial for appropriate treatment, by monitoring the presentation of symptoms and imaging/radiographic findings.
