Effect of MIPO combined with locking compression plate fixation on shoulder and elbow joint function and bone metabolic activity in adult patients with middle humeral shaft fracture.
Article in American journal of translational research, 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
objectiveTo analyze the effect of minimally invasive percutaneous osteosynthesis (MIPO) combined with locking compression plate fixation on middle humeral shaft fracture in adults.
methodsThe clinical data of 88 adult patients with middle humeral shaft fracture treated in Xiang'an Hospital from August 2019 to August 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. According to different surgical methods, they were assigned into an anterograde group (treated with anterograde interlocking intramedullary nail fixation, N=42) and a joint group (treated with MIPO technique combined with locking compression plate fixation, N=46 cases). The perioperative indexes and complications were compared between the two groups. The changes of Constant-Murley shoulder joint function score, Mayo elbow joint function score, bone metabolic activity indexes [collagen hydroxyl terminal peptide (CTX), type I procollagen amino acid terminal peptide (PICP), osteoprotegerin (OPG), and osteocalcin (BGP)], and bone quality indexes [bone trabecular spacing (Tb.Sp), bone volume fraction (BV/TV), bone elastic stress (ES), bone trabecula number (Tb.N), and volume organic matter content (VOC)] were observed before and after the operation for 3 months.
resultsThe fracture healing time and postoperative hospitalization time in the joint group were shorter than those in the anterograde group. The intraoperative blood loss was less than that in the anterograde group (
conclusionMIPO technique combined with locking compression plate fixation can promote the healing of middle humeral shaft fracture in adults, improve the function of the shoulder joint and the elbow joint, regulate the activity of bone metabolism, and improve bone quality, without significant increase in complications.
