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

Coronal shear fractures are rare injuries and standard treatment is yet to be determined. There is still no standard approach and fixation method for Dubberley type 3B cases, which are severe fractures that extend to the ulnar side and are accompanied by posterior comminution, making them challenging injuries. We used a modified posterior trans-olecranon approach in tri-vision in the supine position in two type 3B cases. Bone union was achieved in both cases, which exhibited relatively good treatment outcomes with a mean range of motion of -20° for extension and 127.5° for flexion; mean Mayo Elbow performance score of 90; and mean disabilities of the shoulder, arm, and hand score of 20 points. Thus, a modified posterior trans-olecranon approach in tri-vision is useful for type 3B fractures.
