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

Objective: To explore the effectiveness of partial translocation of flexor carpi radialis tendon in the treatment of traumatic dislocation of the first carpometacarpal joint. Methods: The clinical data of 6 patients with traumatic dislocation of the first carpometacarpal joint who met the selection criteria between March 2020 and June 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 3 males and 3 females with an average age of 33.5 years (range, 16-42 years). All the 6 cases were treated with plaster immobilization for 4-6 weeks, and the time from injury to operation was 6-12 weeks, with an average of 8.8 weeks. All patients underwent reconstruction of the metacarpophalangeal anterior oblique ligament and dorsal posterior oblique ligament of the first carpometacarpal joint with partial translocation of flexor carpi radialis tendon. The pain relief was evaluated by visual analogue scale (VAS) score before and after operation, and the pinch force, palmar abduction and radial abduction angles of the affected side and the healthy side were recorded before and after operation, and the ratio of the above indexes between the affected side and the healthy side was calculated to evaluate the effectiveness. Results: All the incisions healed by first intention after operation, and there was no complication related to operation such as neurovascular injury. All patients were followed up 6-19 months (mean, 12.7 months). The range of motion of the thumb on the affected side was the same as that on the healthy side, the first carpometacarpal joint was stable without recurrent dislocation and pain. At last follow-up, the VAS score, the pinch force of the affected side, the abduction angle of the palmar side of the affected thumb, the abduction angle of the radial side of the affected thumb, and the pinch force ratio, the palmar abduction angle ratio of the thumb, and the radial abduction angle ratio of the thumb of the affected side to the healthy side significantly improved when compared with those before operation ( Conclusion: Partial translocation of the flexor carpi radialis tendon to reconstruct the metacarpophalangeal and dorsal radial ligaments for the treatment of traumatic dislocation of the first carpometacarpal joint is a reliable surgical method.
