[Factors associated with functionality in patients with closed ankle fracture].
Observational study in Revista medica del Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Background: Ankle fractures are among the most frequent fractures in the lower limb, predominantly affecting young people and representing approximately 9% of all fractures. Objective: To identify the factors associated with functionality in patients with closed ankle fracture. Material and methods: Observational and retrospective study. Records of people with a diagnosis of ankle fractures admitted to rehabilitation between January to December 2020 in a Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Unit of a third level hospital were included. Age, sex, body mass index (BMI), days of disability, mechanism of injury, type of treatment, length of stay in rehabilitation, type of fracture and functionality were captured. Chi-squared and Student's t test were used to determine the association. Subsequently a multivariate analysis with binary logistic regression was performed. Results: The average age of the subjects was 44.8 years, the female sex was presented in 54.7%, the average BMI was 28.8%, 66% carried out a paid work activity, 65% received surgical treatment, the average time of disability was 140 days, the factors associated with functionality independently were age, pain, dorsiflexion and plantar flexion upon admission to rehabilitation. Conclusions: Ankle fractures occur in a young population and the factors associated with functionality were age, dorsiflexion, plantar flexion, and pain upon admission to rehabilitation.
