Figure-of-Eight Cerclage With High-Resistance Sutures Plus InternalBrace as Treatment for Posterior Dislocation of the Sternoclavicular Joint: A Case Report.

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
The sternoclavicular joint dislocation is a very infrequent injury that can put the patient's life at risk if it is not diagnosed and treated properly. This can present as an anterior or posterior dislocation, the latter being less common and more dangerous due to its proximity to visceral structures of the thoracic cavity. Herein, we present the case of a 19-year-old male athlete diagnosed with a posterior dislocation of the right sternoclavicular joint due to indirect trauma during a soccer match, who was successfully treated with a figure-of-eight cerclage with high-resistance sutures plus an InternalBrace technique. After recovery, he has been able to get back to sports with a complete range of motion and experiencing no instability after a two-year follow-up. Figure-of-eight cerclage with high-resistance sutures plus an InternalBrace could be a good technique for surgical treatment of this rare injury, especially in young and physically active patients.
