A bad break: mechanisms and assessment of acute and chronic pain after bone fracture.
Review in Pain, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
abstractPain is one of the primary indicators of a bone fracture and serves both a functional and practical role in guiding recovery. However, fracture pain can persist long after the fracture itself has clinically healed. The neural and molecular mechanisms that drive acute pain postfracture, and how these mechanisms are pathologically usurped to trap patients into persistent, debilitating, and often difficult to treat, chronic pain, are not well understood. The aim of this review is to provide insight into the risk factors for pain persistence after fracture, review the physiological and pathophysiological mechanisms of fracture pain, and critically evaluate the literature around fracture pain assessment techniques/models. Taken together, the concepts covered herein will provide a strong foundation to support the development of more effective treatments to better alleviate postfracture pain.
