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

Volar distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) dislocation is a rare clinical entity that is commonly missed during initial evaluation. We report a case of a locked volar DRUJ dislocation associated with ulnar artery transection in a 53-year-old patient. He presented to the hospital after sustaining an injury to the right wrist by a heavy machinery object. Clinical evaluation showed contused skin, decreased sensation in the ulnar 2 digits, and an audible radial pulse, assessed using Doppler. Imaging studies revealed a locked volar DRUJ dislocation associated with a nondisplaced fracture of the distal ulna. Open reduction was performed with decompression of the Guyon canal. The ulnar artery was found to be transected and was primarily repaired. After the surgery, the patient showed marked improvement in neurological symptoms and patent ulnar artery flow. This case highlights the importance of meticulous evaluation and presents the heterogeneity of a volar DRUJ dislocation.
