Innovative Anatomical Plate for Surgical Fixation of Acromial-End Clavicle Fractures: A Case Report.
Article in Orthopedic reviews, 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
Introduction: Distal clavicle fractures are uncommon and present clinical challenges due to complex anatomy and instability. Standard fixation plates often fail to match the clavicle's contour, requiring bending that may weaken fixation and cause irritation. Case Presentation: A 39-year-old male sustained a Neer type IIb distal clavicle fracture after a fall on the right shoulder. Clinical and radiographic evaluation revealed a comminuted fracture with pain and restricted motion. Management and Outcomes: Open reduction and internal fixation with a newly designed anatomical plate were performed under general anesthesia using seven locking screws. Rehabilitation began early, and recovery was uneventful. At two months, radiographs confirmed union and alignment, with full, pain-free motion and improved Constant and ASES scores. Conclusion: The newly developed anatomical plate provided stable fixation and excellent functional recovery. Further studies with larger cohorts and longer follow-up are required to validate long-term efficacy.
