"Preventing nail migration by stack nailing in forearm fractures" - A technical note.
Article in Trauma case reports, 2024. 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
Diaphyseal forearm fractures are typically treated with open reduction and plate fixation, which has been proven to be the most effective method in numerous trials. However, the risk of periosteal stripping, haemorrhage evacuation, nonunion, and infection is always present and may cause a delayed union and other surgical consequences. Although intramedullary nails have been mentioned in the literature for forearm bone fractures, issues regarding their common complication of nail migration, especially of the ulnar fracture, before the fracture has been consolidated is an issue, and has not been addressed. We describe a case of IM nail migration of Ulna who presented to us, during the follow up, before the fracture had consolidated. The procedure described is short and consistent with the outstanding cosmetic and functional results.
