Iatrogenic Physeal Fracture Sustained During Manipulation for Arthrofibrosis of the Knee.
Article in Journal of the Pediatric Orthopaedic Society of North America, 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
Tibial spine fractures are uncommon, particularly in the pediatric population. Multiple case reports have described the treatment of tibial spine fractures in pediatric patients as it presents unique anatomical challenges. Displaced tibial spine fractures can lead to instability and become entrapped in the knee, resulting in decreased range of motion and knee contractures. This case highlights the unique treatment complications of severe knee contracture coinciding with femur deformity after an iatrogenic physeal fracture sustained during manipulation under anesthesia following a tibial spine repair. Key Concepts: (1)Arthrofibrosis is a common following tibial spine repairs in the pediatric population.(2)To prevent contracture and arthrofibrosis, rehabilitation should be started as soon as immobilization ends.(3)Iatrogenic femur fractures can occur during manipulation under anesthesia.(4)Sagittal plane remodeling in the femur can occur in patients with significant growth remaining.
