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

objectiveExtraction of cancellous bone from the distal radius for reconstructive procedures on the hand. INDICATIONS: All reconstructive procedures on the hand for which a corticocancellous and/or vascularized bone graft or a large amount of cancellous bone is not required. CONTRAINDICATIONS: Acute distal radius fracture, osteosynthesis material embedded in the distal radius, e.g., after palmar plate osteosynthesis of a distal radius fracture, tumor in the distal radius. SURGICAL TECHNIQUE: Removal of cancellous bone from the distal radius radially from the dorsal radial tuberosity via a small bone window at the base of the second extensor tendon compartment. POSTOPERATIVE MANAGEMENT: Wound dressing on the distal radius, elevation of the arm above heart level until swelling has subsided, first dressing change on postoperative day 1 or 2, depending on the primary procedure on the hand, dressing until wound healing is complete, removal of the skin sutures around postoperative day 14.

resultsIn 2023, cancellous bone was harvested from the distal radius of 17 patients for reconstructive procedures on the hand (6 mediocarpal partial arthrodeses, 3 acute fractures, 5 delayed bone healings, 1 pseudarthrosis, 2 bone tumors). In all cases, the available amount of radius cancellous bone was sufficient, resulting in satisfactory healing. All patients complained of short-term, slight discomfort at the donor site for the first few days after surgery, which resolved completely. There were no complications at the donor site on the distal radius.
