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
Neer type V distal clavicle fractures are challenging injuries to treat. The fracture morphology includes a small distal clavicle fracture fragment attached to the acromion by the acromioclavicular ligaments and a separate inferior fracture fragment attached to the coracoclavicular ligaments. This fracture pattern is functionally equivalent to a complete acromioclavicular joint dislocation. Plate fixation is not an ideal operative strategy, as the distal fracture fragment is too small to obtain adequate screw fixation; therefore, suture button or suture anchor fixation is an alternative that has been described and used. These techniques use the coracoid as an anchor to reduce the clavicle indirectly to the inferior fracture fragment and small lateral distal fragment to achieve bony union. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe a technique for open suture button fixation and Nice knot suture cerclage for Neer type V distal clavicle fractures.
