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

A 16-year-old male had a right elbow contracture after dislocation. The patient underwent supine-position ultrasound-assisted arthroscopic surgery, combining open removal of the posterior oblique ligament with the medial collateral ligament. The elbow joint flexion angle improved from 120 degrees to 145 degrees, and the extension angle improved from -50 degrees to 0 degrees. The patient returned to sports without recurrence of elbow joint contracture three months after surgery. Supine-positioned ultrasound-assisted arthroscopic surgery for elbow joint contracture is a safe and effective technique that eliminates the need for intraoperative position changes and big skin incisions.
