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

backgroundThe risk factors for proximal radial abnormalities (PRA) in paediatric patients with untreated chronic Monteggia fractures (CMFs) are unclear. This multicentre study aimed to evaluate the risk factors for PRA in children with untreated CMFs. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe clinical data of 142 patients (mean age at the time of injury: 5.73 years) with untreated unilateral CMFs were retrospectively reviewed. The radial neck-shaft angle (RNS

resultsIn children with untreated CMFs (mean time from injury to diagnosis: 14.6 months), Student's t-test revealed a significant difference in the RH

conclusionsIn paediatric patients with unilateral untreated CMFs, PRA of the injured elbow consisted mainly of RH enlargement or radial neck narrowing rather than valgus deformities of the proximal radius. Older age at injury, increased time from injury to diagnosis and DD-RH were risk factors for more severe PRA. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III.
