Sequential Traumatic and Non-traumatic Slipped Upper Femoral Epiphysis in a Young Girl: A Case Report and Review of Diagnostic Challenges.
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
Slipped upper femoral epiphysis (SUFE), also known as slipped capital femoral epiphysis, is a serious adolescent orthopedic condition, with potential for bilateral involvement. While most cases are idiopathic and occur during periods of rapid growth, trauma can unmask underlying physeal instability. We present a rare case of a young girl with a normal body mass index (BMI) who developed a traumatic SUFE in the left hip, followed one year later by a delayed, non-traumatic SUFE in the right hip. The delayed diagnosis of contralateral hip involvement underscores the diagnostic complexities of early or subtle SUFE and the importance of ongoing clinical vigilance, even in the presence of normal radiographs. This case supports a more proactive surveillance approach for the contralateral hip in pediatric SUFE patients.
