[Old and young-Differences in the treatment of proximal humeral fractures?]
Review in Unfallchirurgie (Heidelberg, Germany), 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
The rising incidence of proximal humeral fractures has made this an important topic in the treatment reality of trauma surgery. Given the variety of treatment options available, the question arises as to what extent patient age influences the choice of treatment and, consequently, the functional outcome. In our approach the morphological features of the fracture and individual patient characteristics form the foundation for determining whether surgical or conservative treatment should be pursued. Whenever possible, joint-preserving reconstruction should be the goal in younger patients. In older patients, the implantation of reverse shoulder arthroplasty is the treatment of choice. Joint replacement enables early mobilization of older patients, facilitating a swift return to daily life. Looking ahead, a further increase in the fracture incidence and a corresponding rise in the rate of necessary surgical interventions are anticipated.
