Radial head subluxation in a chondrodystrophic cat: aetiology, surgical treatment and outcome.
Article in JFMS open reports. 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
Case summary: A 10-month-old male neutered Dwelf cat with bilateral thoracic angular limb deformity secondary to chondrodystrophism presented with an acute onset of left thoracic lameness due to elbow subluxation and radial head displacement. Financial restrictions limited treatment to a single surgical procedure consisting of a left ulnar osteotomy, radioulnar polypropylene toggle placement and two temporary radioulnar transosseous K-wires. The lameness resolved but a degree of radial head subluxation persisted, radiographically similar in degree to the contralateral limb. Relevance and novel information: Chondrodystrophism is not common in cats. Inbreeding and chondrodystrophism is likely to result in the diagnosis of musculoskeletal diseases that have not previously been reported in this species. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first case report of a developmental radial head subluxation in a chondrodystrophic cat.
