Minimally invasive surgery and conservative treatment achieve similar clinical outcomes in patients with type II fragility fractures of the pelvis.
Article in Journal of orthopaedic surgery and research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 2 registered trials, which are not on this map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.

Abstract
objectiveTo compare clinical efficacy and quality of life (QoL) outcomes between minimally invasive surgery and conservative treatment for type II fragility fractures of the pelvis (FFP II).
methodsA total of 150 patients with FFP II, treated at our hospital from January 2019 to December 2022, were included in this study. The mean follow-up period was 22 ± 5 months. Patients were divided into two groups: 68 were assigned to the minimally invasive surgery group and 82 to the conservative treatment group. Clinical outcomes were assessed using the Majeed questionnaire and the self-reported Short Musculoskeletal Function Assessment. Health-related quality of life was evaluated with the Short-Form 36 Health Survey and World Health Organization Quality of Life Brief Version questionnaires.
resultsThere were no significant differences in basic information (gender/cause of injury/comorbidities/Rommens classification/osteoporosis status) or clinical outcomes between the two groups on the basis of the Majeed and Short Musculoskeletal Function Assessment questionnaire scores at the final follow-up. However, the minimally invasive surgery group showed a significant improvement in QoL compared with the conservative treatment group (including on the Short-Form 36 Health Survey and World Health Organization Quality of Life Brief Version; P < 0.01).
conclusionMinimally invasive surgery and conservative treatment achieve similar clinical outcomes in patients with FFP II fractures. However, minimally invasive surgery significantly enhances the health-related QoL of these patients.
