Anterior Dislocation of Elbow with Fracture of Medial Epicondyle: A Rare Injury Case Report.
Article in Journal of orthopaedic case reports, 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
Introduction: Anterior elbow dislocation is a rare occurrence, mostly produced by direct trauma to elbow in flexion attitude following fall from height. Posterior dislocation is the commoner entity at the elbow joint, thus rarity of this case incites reporting. Case Report: A 53-year-old male presented to our outpatient department with complaints of pain, swelling, and inability to move his right upper limb, following fall from height. On examination, no associated neurovascular deficit was found. Radiological investigations confirmed anterior dislocation of elbow joint with medial epicondyle fracture of the right humerus. Dislocation was reduced under general anesthesia with ulnohumeral K-wire and fracture of the medial epicondyle was stabilized by open reduction and internal fixation with K-wire. Conclusion: Anterior dislocation of elbow is a rare occurrence with frequent association with periarticular fractures and neurovascular injury. Therefore, a careful assessment followed by the early proper reduction and management leads to better functional outcome.
