Quick and Accurate Placement of Cannulated Screws to Internal Fixation of Femoral Neck Fractures Using a Novel Guide Device.

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
introductionFixation of femoral neck fractures with cannulated screws is an accepted method. This study aimed to compare a novel guide device and conventional technique with regard to the accuracy, operation time, fluoroscopy numbers, and drilling attempts during the insertion of cannulated screws to internal fixation of femoral neck fractures.
methodsThis retrospective study included 60 patients with intracapsular femoral neck fractures who were treated with cannulated screws from January 2020 to June 2021. Three screws were inserted into the femoral neck by conventional technique or using the novel guide device. The operative time, total drilling attempts, and fluoroscopy numbers were evaluated. The precision of implant placement was evaluated by screw parallelism and spread. The patients were followed for 12-24 months.
resultsThe fluoroscopy numbers and operation time of the guide-device-assisted group were shorter than for the conventional group (p < 0.05). The total drilling attempts were significantly lower with the guide device than in the conventional group (p < 0.05). The guide-device-assisted group had better screw parallelism and greater spread than the conventional group (p < 0.05).
conclusionsThe novel guide device may be an effective assistant instrument for internal fixation of femoral neck fracture with cannulated screws.
