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

Introduction and importance: Supracondylar humerus fractures are common in children but open type is very rare (almost %1 of all supracondylar humerus fractures) and the treatment strategy for these fractures is yet to be standardized. Case presentation: 11-year-old boy was brought to our hospital with pain in his left arm with high energy trauma history of motor accident. On the first examination the elbow was found swollen and 3 cm wide wound observed on the flexor aspect of the elbow and the median nerve was seen stretched on the distal humerus.We shared the 6-month results of our patient who was fixed with Kirshner-wire after open surgery and reduction. Clinical discussion: Although open supracondylar humeral fractures are rare, care should be taken in terms of neurovascular injury and infection in these patients. It should be followed closely in terms of loss of reduction in the postoperative period. Conclusion: In these cases, the patient should be called to close controls, and the time of removal of splints and wires should be adjusted well.
