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

Introduction: Acute popliteal artery thrombosis can occur as a result of direct trauma to the knee in cases of knee dislocations, distal femur fractures, and tibial plate fractures. Traction injury can induce indirect trauma, including popliteal artery laceration. Popliteal artery transection injury can have fatal effects for patients, since irreversible ischemia can occur in as little as 6-8 h. Case Report: We report a rare case of 21-year-old male patient with closed displaced medial condyle fracture of tibia with popliteal artery thrombosis which was managed by intra-arterial thrombolysis. Conclusion: Popliteal artery thrombosis though a rare complication should be suspected and ruled out by imaging techniques in cases of blunt trauma to knee leading to tibial plateau fractures along with some neurological deficit and echymosis posterior to knee that suggests high intensity of trauma.
