A Rare Case of Open (Gustilo II) Periprosthetic Fracture (Vancouver B2) in a Polytraumatized Patient.

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
Periprosthetic femoral fracture is the third most frequent complication after total hip replacement (THR). It is mainly caused by low-energy trauma in the elderly. Open periprosthetic fractures are significantly rarer and are caused by high-energy trauma. Here we present a case of a 73-year-old man who sustained an open (Gustilo II) left periprosthetic femoral fracture with an unstable femoral component (Vancouver B2). After an early stabilization with a temporary external fixator, a single-stage revision using a tapered long femoral stem was performed. At the last follow-up (3.2 years), the patient was satisfied and walked without pain and aids, and the Harris Hip Score was 83.5. No signs of infection or osteolysis were present in the last radiographs.
