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

The numbers of osteoporotic fractures will increase due to the demographic change, which particularly affects the proximal femur, pelvis, proximal humerus, wrist and vertebral column. Surgical treatment is superior to conservative treatment of proximal femoral fractures. Non-dislocated fractures of the wrist can also be treated with a plaster cast but studies suggest that the results in the first 12 months are better after surgical treatment. The situation is similar for fractures of the proximal humerus and non-dislocated fractures in particular can also be treated conservatively. A score and classification were recently developed for making decisions on the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral fractures. Fractures of the anterior and posterior pelvic ring can be treated conservatively with the patient under sufficient analgesia as long as there is no substantial dislocation. The highest priority in geriatric traumatology is fast remobilization.
