1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Traumatic floating clavicle or bipolar dislocation is a rare injury. Herein, we present a case of ipsilateral sternoclavicular and acromioclavicular joint dislocation after a motorcycle accident. The patient was a 43-year-old man who presented with right shoulder pain and limited range of motion. The radiograph revealed superior displacement of the acromioclavicular joint dislocation and suspected ipsilateral sternoclavicular joint dislocation and a CT scan confirmed injuries to both the medial and lateral ends of the clavicle. Due to the patient being active and young, we considered operative treatment. The sternoclavicular joint was stabilized with FiberTape® suture (Arthrex, Naples, FL), and the acromioclavicular joint with Dog Bone™ Button (Arthrex) and suture cerclage. At the one-year follow-up, the patient reported excellent outcomes without complications. We also summarize the literature on this particular injury, including its characteristics, surgical options, and treatment outcomes.
