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

backgroundRecently Lisfranc fractures have increased due to increased high-energy injuries from various causes. However, due to incomplete traditional classification, the pattern and distribution of fractures cannot be analyzed in three dimensions. This study examines a novel fracture pattern based on the fracture line and heat map for Lisfranc injuries.

methodsWe retrospectively analyzed data from CT scans of 157 patients diagnosed with Lisfranc injuries. We extracted the CT data of a healthy adult and created a standard foot model. We performed 3D reconstruction using patients' CT images and superimposed the fracture model onto the standard model for drawing fracture lines. Subsequently, we converted the fracture lines into a heat map for visualization.

resultsThe novel classification identifies high-density fracture sites within the tarsometatarsal joint, predominantly localized in the medial and lateral columns. The fracture lines not involving the TMT joint are mainly located in the medial aspect of the first metatarsal trunk and the fifth metatarsal trunk. Additionally, we develop an assessment protocol for Lisfranc injury that incorporates ligament injury, displacement, and fracture.

conclusionThe new classification accurately identifies the different types of fractures in Lisfranc injuries, enabling clinicians to more fully and accurately understand their patients' injuries and assisting them in efficiently making sound decisions to avoid diagnostic delays that can negatively impact postoperative outcomes.
