1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Objective: To explore the clinical effectiveness of suture anchor (SA) repair combined with open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) in the treatment of deltoid ligament rupture (DLR) in ankle fractures. Methods: This is a retrospective analysis of 210 patients with DLR in ankle fracture who were treated in Beijing Chaoyang Hospital from January 2020 to June 2022. According to the surgical records, 125 patients received SA repair combined with ORIF (Repair group) and 85 patients received ORIF only (Non-repair group). The curative effect, recovery of ankle joint function, pain, and bone metabolism of the two groups were observed. Results: The clinical effectiveness (overall good) was higher in the Repair group ( Conclusions: SA combined with ORIF has a good effect in the treatment of DLR in ankle fracture patients, which can promote the recovery of ankle function, relieve postoperative pain and improve bone metabolism.
