Neglected Lunate Dislocation: A Case Report on Successful Management With Open Reduction and Internal Fixation.
Article in Cureus, 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
Lunate dislocations are often underdiagnosed wrist injuries that typically result from a fall onto an outstretched hand. If left untreated, they may lead to significant functional impairment. We report the case of a 65-year-old man who presented with persistent wrist pain six months after a fall. The initial diagnosis was missed. Radiographs and computed tomography (CT) revealed a neglected volar lunate dislocation. Surgical management with open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) using Kirschner wires was performed under regional anesthesia. The patient experienced substantial pain relief and improved wrist function postoperatively. This case underscores the importance of early diagnosis and surgical intervention while demonstrating that favorable outcomes can still be achieved in delayed presentations.
