[Ligamentous elbow injuries-When is surgical treatment still indicated?]
Review in Unfallchirurgie (Heidelberg, Germany), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The elbow joint is a hinge-type synovial joint and is the second most frequently dislocated joint in adults and the most frequently dislocated joint in children. To find the right treatment options a precise understanding of the injury pattern, anatomy, biomechanics and pathology (simple vs. complex dislocation) is essential for a good reconstruction of the function and to prevent chronic instability and pain. The differentiation between acute and chronic instability gives another variation in the treatment plan. According to the latest literature there are clear indications for surgery of a complex elbow dislocation, whereas for simple dislocations conservative treatment is preferentially recommended; however, when is the surgical treatment of a ligamentous elbow dislocation (still) indicated?
