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
Objective: This study aimed to determine the short- and medium-term outcomes of hip dislocation in infants who failed Pavlik harness therapy and were subsequently treated with brace, closed reduction (CR) or open reduction (OR) before 6 months of age. Methods: Fifty infants (66 hip dislocations) who failed Pavlik harness therapy between 2000 and 2018 and were treated with a rigid abduction brace or undergoing a CR or OR/cast were evaluated. All demographic data obtained from the medical system, developments and complications during the follow-up and treatment process were recorded and evaluated. Results: Fifty infants (66 hips) with dislocated hips failed Pavlik harness therapy. Of these, 9 infants (12 hips) underwent rigid abduction splint therapy: 9 hips were successful, 2 hips had CR and 1 had OR. Thirty-eight infants (51 hips) had index CR, of which 3 (3 hips) failed and had OR. Radiographs of 49 hips (44 patients) were normal at the final evaluation. Pavlik harness therapy starting after 3 weeks ( Conclusion: Closed treatment of hip dislocation is possible in most babies who fail Pavlik treatment. Babies who are started on Pavlik therapy after 3 weeks of age may be at increased risk of needing an operating room. Level of Evidence: IV.
