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

purposeThis study is aimed to evaluate the clinical effects of anteromedial support plate combined with three cannulated screws on Pauwels type III femoral neck fractures in young adults.

methodsWe conducted a retrospective study of 27 patients with Pauwels type III femoral neck fracture treated by anteromedial support plate combined with three cannulated screws. The results of fracture healing and complications for all patients were assessed by postoperative imaging examination. The Harris hip score was used to evaluate the functional outcome of the hip at the last follow-up.

resultsThe fracture union was achieved in 25 patients (92.6%). However, two patients required reoperation (two for nonunion). Early implant failure occurred in one patient, neck shortening in one patient and coxa vara in one patient. The excellent or good outcome of the Harris hip score was 96% for the 25 patients with satisfactory fracture union.

conclusionOur preliminary results indicate that anteromedial support plate combined with three cannulated screws is a good alternative in the treatment of Pauwels type III femoral neck fractures in young adults with high union rate and low incidence of complications including nonunion and avascular necrosis of the femoral head.
