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
Objective: To compare the effectiveness of locking plate and intramedullary nail in treatment of Neer two- and three-part fractures of the proximal humerus in the elderly. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 86 elderly patients with Neer two- and three-part fractures of the proximal humerus met the selection criteria between January 2015 and December 2018. Forty-six patients were treated with locking plate fixation (locking plate group), and 40 patients with intramedullary nail fixation (intramedullary nail group). There was no significant difference in gender, age, cause of injury, fracture side and type, time from injury to operation, and comorbidities between the two groups ( Results: Patients in both groups were followed up 18-40 months, with an average of 30.4 months. There was no significant difference in follow-up time between the two groups ( Conclusion: Both locking plates and intramedullary nails can be used for the treatment of Neer two- and three-part fractures of the proximal humerus in the elderly. The intramedullary nail fixation surgery is more minimally invasive, which has fewer postoperative complications and faster fracture healing.
