Autogenous bone-guided induced membrane technique in closed/small-sized open high-energy fractures in benign inflammatory environment: a case series.

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
objectiveInfection and nonunion are the two most challenging issues for high-energy fractures. This study aimed to explore the clinical effect of benign inflammation-cultivated bone growth activity in the treatment of closed/small-sized open and high-energy fractures.
methodsThis study is a case series of closed/small-sized open and high-energy fractures of the lower limbs treated at our hospital from April 2009 to February 2017. All patients underwent debridement and external fixation in the early stage, followed by internal fixation in the second stage. After the operation, fracture healing was monitored by X-ray, and early-stage knee function training was initiated. Also, bone grafting was performed to stimulate the healing reaction, eliminating the atrophic nonunion factors.
resultsThe operation in all 75 cases was carried out after the inflammatory responses completely subsided, leading to secondary wound healing. Bony union appeared in 71 patients who did not suffer from any pain and could stand up and walk without any restriction. Among them, 68 patients could flex their knee > 100°, and three patients had knee flexion ranging from 80 to 100°. No infections occurred after the second operation.
conclusionThis two-stage treatment for high-energy fractures could avoid the damage caused by excessive inflammatory responses that occurred following early-stage one-time internal fixation. This method protected benign inflammatory-callus reactions induced by the primary injury and utilized the advantages of closed reduction in AO fixation with open reduction, thereby avoiding potential infection and nonunion caused by one-time fixation during the early stage.
