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

Distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) instability is a complex pathology that typically occurs due to injury of the triangular fibrocartilage complex. In the acute setting, repair is often successful. However, in the chronic setting or after a prior failed repair, reconstructive methods aim to improve stability using an extrinsic radioulnar soft tissue link. Traditional surgical techniques are technically demanding and require a broad exposure, compromising extrinsic stabilizers. Modifications to these methods using arthroscopy facilitate preservation of ulnocarpal and DRUJ secondary stabilizers, while providing excellent visualization for anatomic passage of the graft and placement of the foveal bone tunnel. We describe a simple and effective arthroscopic reconstruction method for restoring and reinforcing the native anatomy of the critical stabilizers of the DRUJ.
