1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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: To explore the effectiveness of interlocking intramedullary nail fixation system for Sanders type Ⅱ and Ⅲ calcaneal fractures by comparing with open surgery. Methods: Forty patients (40 feet) with Sanders type Ⅱ and Ⅲ calcaneal fractures, who were admitted between May 2020 and December 2022 and met the selection criteria, were included in the study. They were randomly allocated into control group and minimally invasive group using a random number table method, with 20 cases in each group. The patients were treated with the interlocking intramedullary nail fixation system in the minimally invasive group and with steel plate internal fixation via a lateral L-shaped incision in the control group. There was no significant difference between the two groups ( Results: The incision length, operation time, and hospital stay of the minimally invasive group were significantly shorter than those of the control group, and the intraoperative blood loss significantly reduced ( Conclusion: The interlocking intramedullary nail fixation system in treatment of Sanders type Ⅱ and Ⅲ calcaneal fractures has the advantages of minimal trauma, shortened hospital stay, reliable fracture reduction and fixation, and satisfactory foot function recovery.
