1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Avulsion fractures of the lesser or greater trochanter or the iliac crest are uncommon injuries in adolescents. The anterior superior iliac spine, ischium, and anterior inferior iliac spine are the most frequently affected sites. We report a rare case of a 14-year-old boy who sustained an avulsion fracture of the lesser trochanter while playing soccer. No malignancy or associated metabolic bone disease was detected. Conservative treatment was suggested, consisting of a non-weight-bearing period and analgesics. Routine follow-up was performed at one, three, and six months after the injury. Radiographs were utilized to confirm fracture healing. Full recovery and return to a pre-injury functional level were observed at six months. Within this timeframe, a thorough literature review is performed.
