Complications and surgical treatment after pathological fracture associated to HIV secondary disease. A case report.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Due to advances in retroviral treatment, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-related disease may become chronic and the patient survival has substantially increased. Osteoarticular disease in those patients include multifocal osteonecrosis and its complications. Pain and functional limitation may be due to these complications, frequently underdiagnosed, including pathological fractures. Its prompt management may require a different approach than osteosynthesis. We present a long-term chronic HIV patient with severe pain and limitation. A tibial plateau pathological fracture associated to multifocal osteonecrosis was identified and treated with osteonecrosis debridement and total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Acute periprosthetic joint infection developed and required debridement, antibiotic and implant retention. The contralateral knee, also with multiple osteonecrosis foci, was managed with early TKA. We highlight the importance of timely surgical reconstruction to avoid serious limitation and complications.
