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

Introduction: Coronoid fractures in complex elbow dislocations and terrible triad injuries are usually tip avulsions. Only suture fixation of tip fragments may be possible. Case Report: We have described a simple and cost-effective technique for suture fixation of the coronoid fracture using an 18 G needle as a suture passer. Conclusion: This novel technique of using an Ethibond 18 gauge needle as a suture passer may obviate the difficulty usually associated with suture fixation of the coronoid.
