Locked Wire Fixator for a Distal Radius Fracture With Malunion: A Case Report.
Article 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
Surgical treatment for a distal radius fracture using a volar locking plate is difficult if the distal radius malunion remains. Therefore, a different surgical method from volar locking plate fixation should be required. We report the case of an 83-year-old woman with a left dorsal displaced distal radius fracture. However, the deformity of the volar cortex of the radius was recognized because of a previous distal radius fracture. Therefore, osteosynthesis with a locked wire fixator was performed. At 12 months after surgery, the patient has returned to daily activities without difficulty. A locked wire fixator can be useful for treating a distal radius fracture with malunion of the volar cortex of the distal radius.
