Triangular osteosynthesis and lumbopelvic fixation as a valid surgical treatment in posterior pelvic ring lesions: a systematic review.
Review in Frontiers in surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Objective: Unstable fractures of the sacrum often occur in patients with pelvic fractures and represent a real challenge for the orthopedic surgeon. Triangular osteosynthesis (TOS) and lumbopelvic fixation (LP) may represent a valid management option for the treatment of this condition. We present a systematic literature review about lumbopelvic fixation and triangular fixation as treatment option for unstable sacral fractures, to assess clinical and radiological outcomes after surgery and to evaluate appropriate indications and impact on the natural history of sacral fractures. Methods: The review is reported according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. 50 articles out of 108 titles, were considered eligible for the full-text analysis. Finally, 16 studies that met inclusion criteria were included in this review. Results: Overall, 212 patients (87 males, 58 females) with sacral fractures treated with TOS triangular fixation or LP lumbopelvic fixation were collected. The mean age was 37.6 years. Mean follow-up reported in all studies was 24.14 months. Conclusion: The results presented by the different authors, highlight the effectiveness of TOS triangular fixation and LP lumbopelvic fixation for the treatment of unstable sacral fractures associated with other pelvic fractures, in terms of function, stability, cost-effectiveness, and quality of life postoperatively.
