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

Introduction: Adolescent quadriceps rupture is a rare entity, that's why there is a paucity of literature regarding it. In this study, we showcased a case of adolescent traumatic quadriceps rupture treated with open repair with a long follow-up. Case Report: Traumatic quadriceps rupture is very rare in adolescents. A 14-year-old male child suffered an acute trauma over left knee and was presented with imaging (magnetic resonance imaging) showing a traumatic quadriceps rupture. Primary open repair (bone to tendon) done with high tensile non-absorbable suture. Full range of motion returned, and the patient is living a normal life within a year. Age of the patient, type of rupture, and treatment modality in our case make it unique. Conclusion: Primary open quadriceps repair can give good knee function if treated early and efficiently, even in adolescents.
