Article in Unfallchirurgie (Heidelberg, Germany), 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
The incidence of proximal intra-articular tibial fractures is continuously increasing. In addition to high-energy trauma in young patients, osteoporotic fractures occur more frequently in geriatric patients. After a thorough clinical examination including X‑ray and computed tomography (CT) imaging, consolidation of the soft tissue is followed by surgical treatment to achieve the best possible anatomic reconstruction of the articular surface. Nonanatomic reduction with articular gaps >2.5 mm leads to a significantly increased risk of osteoarthritis. Selection of the surgical approach and planning of the osteosynthesis are based on the fracture morphology and the existing soft tissue damage. In addition to arthroscopically assisted percutaneous procedures, sophisticated osteosynthesis is often necessary, which requires several surgical approaches. In this context, posterior surgical approaches are becoming increasingly more important. Primary knee arthroplasty can also play a role, particularly in older patients.
