Evaluation of Surgical Approaches to Management of Traumatic Posteromedial Elbow Instability Syndrome: A Systematic Literature Review Protocol.
Review in Cureus, 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
Posteromedial Instability Syndrome of the Elbow (PMIE) is a condition that arises from injuries to the stabilizing structures of the elbow joint, such as the coronoid process or ulnar lateral collateral ligament. Surgical treatment is commonly performed, but there is uncertainty regarding its results. This systematic review will synthesise the available evidence regarding the efficacy of surgical approaches to PMIE. Published and unpublished primary studies that regard outcomes of patients treated for PMIE, irrespective of approach, will be considered for inclusion. Iterative searches will be performed in the PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane CENTRAL repositories from their inception to May 2023. Grey literature repositories will also be searched. The Cochrane risk of bias tool will be used to assess the quality of eligible interventional studies, while the MINORS tool will be employed for observational studies. If possible, a meta-analysis based on the random-effects model will be conducted. Heterogeneity will be assessed using Cochrane's Q and I
