Anterior Congenital Radial Head Dislocation in an Adult with Associated Posterior Interosseous Nerve Palsy.

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
Introduction: Anterior congenital radial head dislocation (CRHD) is a rare abnormality that is less commonly seen in the adult population. Most of the time, adult-onset symptoms are due to the prolonged dislocation of the radiocapitellar joint that has been present since birth. One of the possible complications of having a prolonged radial head dislocation is the presence of neuropathies such as posterior interosseous nerve (PIN) palsy. There has been, however, no literature published regarding the relationship of CRHD with PIN palsy. Case Report: We here report a 66-year-old male incidentally diagnosed with anterior CRHD with concomitant PIN palsy after acquiring a fracture of the lateral humeral condyle. Open reduction internal fixation of the lateral condyle was done along with decompression of the said nerve. PIN palsy was completely recovered 2 months after surgery. Conclusion: Surgeons must be aware that PIN palsies can occur in the presence of a chronic radial head dislocation, even if asymptomatic. Prompt nerve decompression as well as removal of the mechanical block is pertinent to avoid the perilous effects of an irreversible PIN palsy.
