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

Tibial plate fractures are rare in sports and often associated with high-impact trauma. The most usual classification used in tibial plate fractures is the Schatzker Classification, graded from I to VI, according to the level of comminution of the lesion. There is a scarcity of reports of athletes who have suffered this kind of fracture while playing football or futsal. We present a report of a 37-year-old athlete who suffered a Schatzker V fracture while playing futsal. The athlete had surgical intervention by means of open reduction internal fixation with a plate and screws and was enrolled in a rehabilitation program focusing on quadriceps strengthening and gait training. Nine months after the fracture, our patient resumed playing, an outcome that is quite rare in these complex lesions.
