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
Tendon entrapment is a rare complication of closed forearm fractures. A 16-year-old boy sustained a type 1 open both bone forearm fracture after falling from a skateboard. The injury was initially managed with irrigation, debridement, and flexible intramedullary nailing. Seven weeks after surgery, a flexion contracture of the ipsilateral thumb interphalangeal joint was noted. Subsequent hardware removal and hand therapy failed to improve thumb extension. The patient was taken to the operating room for planned tenolysis and possible tendon reconstruction. Intraoperatively, the flexor pollicis longus tendon was found to be wrapped around the radial shaft as an apparent complication of the initial procedure, which necessitated division and reconstruction of the tendon. To our knowledge, this is the first pediatric reported case of dorsal flexor pollicis longus tendon entrapment through the fracture site in a both bone forearm fracture requiring tendon reconstruction. This case highlights a unique surgical approach to a novel complication of pediatric both bone forearm fracture.
