Classification and Incidence of Heterotopic Ossifications in Relation to NSAID Prophylaxis after Elbow Trauma.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Heterotopic ossification (HO) after elbow trauma can be responsible for significant motion restrictions. The study's primary aim was to develop a new X-ray-based classification for HO of the elbow. This retrospective study analyzed elbow injury radiographs from 138 patients aged 6-85 years (mean 45.9 ± 18) who underwent operative treatment. The new classification was applied at 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 6 months postoperatively. The severity of HO was graded from 0 to 4 and localization was defined as r (radial), p (posterior), u (ulnar) or a (anterior) by two observers. The patients were categorized based on injury location and use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for HO prophylaxis. The correlations between the generated data sets were analyzed using Chi-square tests (χ
