First case of completely asymptomatic traumatic posterior atlantoaxial dislocation without odontoid fracture and literature review.
Article in Journal of craniovertebral junction & spine. 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
Traumatic posterior atlantoaxial dislocation (PAAD) without odontoid fracture is exceptionally rare. We report the first documented case entirely asymptomatic at presentation. A 78-year-old woman, evaluated after a motor vehicle collision, presented with no neck pain, neurological deficits, or loss of consciousness. Computed tomography scan revealed PAAD without odontoid fracture. Closed reduction was successfully performed, followed by posterior C1-C2 fixation with the Goel technique, extended to C3 due to C2-C3 instability. Postoperative imaging confirmed complete reduction, and the patient remained neurologically intact at 6-month follow-up. This case highlights the potential for silent presentation and the need for individualized management.
