Management of Infected Non-union Following Femoral Shaft Fracture in a Patient with Klippel-Trenaunay Syndrome: A Case Report.
Article in Journal of orthopaedic 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
Introduction: The etiology of Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome (KTS) has a significant impact on the management of patient requiring surgical interventions. We report the strategies employed to address an infected non-union in a patient with KTS. Case Report: The patient was transported to an initial treating hospital with femoral shaft fracture after experiencing a fall. The patient was diagnosed with KTS due to vascular malformations identified after severe intraoperative hemorrhaging. An open reduction and internal fixation was performed to stabilize the bone. Nine months after surgery, the patient was transferred to our hospital due to lack of healing with infected non-union. We prioritized treating the infection and plate displacement, and subsequently performed intramedullary nailing. Infection and intraoperative hemorrhaging were successfully controlled and bone union was confirmed 6 months after surgery. Conclusion: The key factors to minimize procedural complications are sufficient preoperative evaluation and planning, surgical skill, and perioperative resource management.
