Fracture analysis of working-age adults in Turkey: a 7-year national registry study.
Article in BMC musculoskeletal disorders, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThe primary objective of this study was to examine the incidence of fractures among individuals aged 20-64 years over a 7-year timeframe by utilising an electronic recording system that is integrated with a substantial portion of the Turkish population.
methodsDe-identified health records were acquired from the nationwide personal health recording system. Four age groups were established: 20-34, 35-44, 45-54, and 55-64 years. Incidence rates were further analysed according to sex and age group.
resultsA total of 3,286,991 fractures were recorded in the 7-year time period, with male patients accounting for 62.1% of those cases. The overall fracture incidence rate in the Turkish adult population was 1029/100,000. The incidence rate was 727.44/100,000 for women and 1158.86/100,000 for men (p < 0.001). The age group with the highest number of fractures was 20-34 years with 1337.012 (37.3%) fractures. Wrist fractures (17.46%), finger fractures (14.4%), and foot fractures (11.85%) accounted for 43.7% of all fractures. In women, the incidence of fractures, excluding those of the hand and wrist, increased significantly as the age groups increased (p < 0.05).
conclusionWrist, finger, and foot fractures were found to be the most common fractures among individuals aged 20-64 years. Fracture incidence was highest in men and in the age group of 20-34 years, encompassing individuals who are more active in work and sports.
