Kaplan Lesion in a 10-Year-Old Boy: A Case Report.

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
Kaplan's lesion, a rare complex metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint dislocation in children, is often requires surgical intervention. The dorsal approach minimizes neurovascular risk, while the volar approach allows volar plate repair. A 10-year-old boy presented with a left index finger MCP dislocation after trauma. Closed reduction failed, and open reduction via a dorsal approach was performed. Intraoperative findings included volar plate interposition and cartilage fracture. Postoperative immobilization and physiotherapy restored full joint motion at six months. Kaplan's lesion is rare in children, requiring careful management to avoid complications like stiffness or growth arrest. The dorsal approach offers effective visualization and safety. Timely surgical intervention ensures successful outcomes in complex MCP dislocations in children.
