Determination of Posterior Tibial Slope Changes After Tibial Plateau Fracture Fixation: A Retrospective Case Series.
Article in Indian journal of orthopaedics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 and Aim: A tibial plateau fracture is an intra-articular fracture that affects the function and stability of the knee joint and requires careful evaluation and pre-operative planning. We determined the posterior tibial slope changes after tibial plateau fracture stabilization, aiming to help improve surgical success in maintaining the lower limb's natural axis. Methods: This retrospective case series involved all Golestan and Imam Khomeini hospital patients (Ahvaz, Iran) with Schatzker type IV-VI tibial plateau fractures from April 1, 2017, to March 30, 2020, who underwent surgical fixation. Data on the age, gender, body mass index (BMI), surgical approach, posterior tibial slope angle in the injured and healthy knees, pain, and knee joint instability were collected. We analyzed the data using SPSS version 22 and considered a significance level of Results: Among the 31 study participants, 24 (77.4%) were males. The mean age of the patients was 39.81 ± 14.41 years (21-78), with a mean BMI of 25.4 ± 2.7 (20.3-31.2) kg/m Conclusion: The tibial slope's posterior column collapses more than its anterior column over time, reducing the posterior tibial slope angle. Therefore, the correct reduction of the tibial plateau's posterior slope is more important.
