Open reduction and tunneled suspensory fixation for lateral end of clavicle fractures: surgical technique.
Article in JSES reviews, reports, and techniques, 2022. 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
Unstable distal end clavicle fractures are associated with significant rates of nonunion and poor functional outcomes. Surgical treatment is paramount for unstable fracture patterns; however, treatment options are various, with each having its advantages and drawbacks. Recently, suture-based coracoclavicular fixation techniques using suture buttons have been implemented with high union rates, satisfactory shoulder function, and low rates of complications. In this report, we demonstrate a modified fixation of unstable lateral clavicle fractures. Our technique entails open reduction and suspensory coracoclavicular fixation using suture anchors and suture button devices with supplemental acromioclavicular suspensory fixation.
