Dorsal bridging plates for the treatment of high and low energy distal radius fractures.
Article in Journal of clinical orthopaedics and trauma, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Distal radius fractures are common and treatment of complex fracture pattens can be challenging. We assessed functional outcomes, radiographic analysis, and complications of 26 distal radius fractures treated with dorsal bridging plate (DBP) at a mean of 14 months post plate removal (6-34 months). Radiographic parameters were measured pre- and post-operatively and patient reported wrist evaluation scores, patient reported wrist range of movement and satisfaction scores. Mean post-operative total PRWE was 26 (range 0-76) and mean wrist mobility 52° flexion (range 10°-85°) and 50° extension (range 10°-85°). Mean post-operative patient satisfaction score was 89% (range 50-100%). Four patients developed complications (one EPL rupture and three developed CRPS). DBP can reliably restore distal radius anatomy and is associated with good functional outcome scores, return of functional range of wrist movement and high levels of patient satisfaction. Level of Evidence: III.
