A new technique for percutaneous screw fixation for treating FFP IIIa and IIIb fragility fractures of the pelvis.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
To determine the presence of a consistent osseous corridor from the lateral-posterior aspect of the anterior inferior iliac spine to the sacral wing that could be used for safe trans percutaneous screw fixation for pelvic fragility fractures of the iliac wing and fracture dislocations of the sacroiliac joint (FFP types IIIa and IIIb). Computed tomography (CT) scans were obtained from 100 patients and imported to Mimics software for 3D reconstruction. Then, a cylinder was drawn to imitate the modified LC-II screw and adjusted to a maximum radius and length to obtain the feasible region. Thirteen parameters of the osseous corridor of the modified LC-II screw were measured. Differences between sex groups were compared, and significant statistical correlations were carefully studied to determine potentially important clinical relationships. The records of patients with FFP type IIIa and IIIb fragility fractures of the pelvis were extracted from our hospital. Patients who underwent modified LC-II screw fixation, LC-II screw fixation or reconstruction plate fixation were included. Patients' operative characteristics and complications were recorded at follow-up. Fracture reduction quality was assessed using the Matta standard. Functional outcomes were evaluated using the Majeed grading system. The mean maximum diameters of the osseous corridors of the modified LC-II screw in males and females were 12.73 and 10.83 mm, respectively. The mean maximum lengths of the osseous corridors of the modified LC-II screw in males and females were 96.37 and 93.37 mm, respectively. In the treatment of patients with FFP IIIa and FFP IIIb fractures, the group of treatment by the modified LC-II screws fixation was shown significantly shorter operative time and fewer intraoperative blood loss in comparison to that by the reconstruction plates. In the present study, all the males and females had a complete osseous corridor of the modified LC-II screw. The clinical results of the patients who were treated with modified LC-II screw fixation suggest that the novel method has a good preliminary outcome.
