TREATMENT OF PEDIATRIC FEMUR FRACTURES WITH FLEXIBLE STAINLESS STEEL INTRAMEDULLARY NAIL.
Article in Acta ortopedica brasileira, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectivesTo identify the characteristics of patients and femur fractures treated with a stainless steel intramedullary nail (ESIN) in children under 15 years of age. Know the results of using the ESIN of related steel in the service.
methodsRetrospective study with review of hospital records and organization of data in spreadsheets.
result24 cases were identified, 17 male cases and 7 female cases. A minimum age of 4 years and a maximum of 11 years were observed (average of 7 years). The 3 most common trauma mechanisms were being run over (n:8, 33%) and falling from a height (n:8, 3%). The most common location of the fractures was in the mid-diaphyseal region (n: 20, 88%), only one case presented a bilateral femur fracture. The most common associated trauma was traumatic brain injury. The observation period observed several months between 2 and 5. With regard to complications, 3 cases were observed (12.5%) being bursitis, vicious construction and loss of reduction.
conclusionSteel HIF shows similar good results. As the study includes the retrospective profile, the absence of a group and the small sample size.
