Posterior Hip Pointer: Subperiosteal Detachment of the Gluteal Muscles at the Posterior Iliac Crest in Two Elite Athletes.

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
Hip injuries are common in contact sports, particularly in high-impact activities. A well-known type of hip trauma is the hip pointer, which is a contusion of the iliac crest caused by a direct blow. Typically, hip pointers involve the lateral aspect of the iliac crest. In this case report, we present an unusual variation of this injury affecting the posterior iliac crest near the posterior superior iliac spine (PSIS). We describe two cases of elite athletes who sustained posterior iliac crest trauma, a condition we propose naming the "posterior hip pointer". This report highlights the clinical presentation, imaging findings, treatment approach, and implications for sports medicine.
