Traumatic Radius Pseudoarthrosis in Neurofibromatosis Type 1: All Treatment Options in One Patient.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Although congenital pseudoarthrosis of the radius is a rare case, it has been reported many times in the literature in the past and it has been shown that it can be associated with neurofibromatosis type 1. However, traumatic radius pseudoarthrosis has never been reported before. In this case report, all treatment options were applied to the same patient over a four-year period and the results were reported. A two-year-old boy had a left radius diaphysis fracture after a simple fall, and bone union could not be achieved despite the application of cast immobilization, internal fixation grafting, and electrical stimulation in an external center. He was admitted to our hospital when he was six years old. A plain X-ray image and computed tomography scan showed that he had radius pseudoarthrosis and also he was diagnosed with neurofibromatosis type 1 on genetic analysis. The patient underwent wide resection of the segment with pseudoarthrosis and free vascularized fibula grafting. Bone union was achieved in the third postoperative month.
