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 problemCementless medial unicondylar knee prostheses with mobile inlays have proved to be successful and are increasingly being used worldwide; however, there is a risk of fracture of the medial tibial plateau in the postoperative healing phase. THE SOLUTION: In most cases we observed split fractures starting from the keel of the implant. These can be treated with a small posteromedial locking plate, whereby the upper screws are inserted through the keel slot and then interlocked. This achieves an optimally strong bond between the implant and the screws and a stable construct. SURGICAL TECHNIQUE: A longitudinal skin incision is made at the level of the keel slot. A radial T‑plate is placed subcutaneously. The plate is fixed with a lag screw in the middle section. The compression usually closes the fracture gap. Then three locking cortical bone screws are inserted through the keel slot in the transverse section of the plate. Distal fixation by locking or standard screws. POSTOPERATIVE MANAGEMENT: Immediate pain-adapted partial weight bearing, unrestricted mobility. Healing of the fracture and full weight bearing mostly achieved after 4 weeks.
