1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Objective: To investigate the possible mechanism and fracture stability of subtypes of type B Hangman's fracture by using imaging observation. Methods: Patients with type B Hangman's fractures admitted to multiple centers between January 2008 and October 2023 were selected as the research objects. The clinical data and imaging data of patients who met the selection criteria were extracted. The patients' age, gender, cause of fracture, disease duration, visual analogue scale (VAS) score of neck pain, neck disability index (NDI), and American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) classification of spinal cord function were collected. Based on the imaging data, the anatomical structure of the contralateral superior articular process fracture, the relationship between the superior articular process fracture line and the position of the odontoid process, the associated posterior vertebral wall fracture and its classification, the incidence of vertebral arch floating and C Results: A total of 86 cases of type B Hangman's fractures were collected. There were 67 males and 19 females. The mean age was 51.0 years (range, 21-78 years). There were 48 cases of pedicle fracture (POA group), 25 cases of inferior articular process fracture (IAP group), and 13 cases of laminar fracture (CSL group). There was no significant difference in age, gender, cause of fracture, disease duration, VAS score of neck pain, and NDI between groups ( Conclusion: The mechanism of different subtypes of type B Hangman's fracture may be that the lateral mass of the rotation of the atlas applied the overextension compression force to the unilateral superior articular process of the axis vertebra, and the contralateral pedicle, inferior articular process and lamina fractures were caused by direct violence or/and rotational violence to different degrees. The decomposition of this type of fracture into C
