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.

Abstract
Acute plastic deformation of both the radius and ulna without fracture is rare in adolescents and can be difficult to recognize from initial examination or radiologic assessment. A 16-year-old female sustained a bicycle-related injury and subsequently developed progressive limitation of forearm rotation, prompting reevaluation. Preoperative forearm rotation was restricted to 15 degrees of supination and 60 degrees of pronation, indicating substantial functional impairment. Three-dimensional deformity analysis revealed distinct maximal inclination directions for the radius and ulna, allowing determination of optimal correction angles from the contralateral side. A step-cut osteotomy for the radius and a hinged osteotomy for the ulna achieved adequate correction, supported by intraoperative rotational assessment. At two months postoperatively, forearm rotation had improved to 100 degrees of supination and 90 degrees of pronation, enabling full return to badminton at three months. This case highlights the diagnostic difficulty of acute plastic deformation involving both the radius and ulna within a single forearm and underscores the importance of precise three-dimensional planning in achieving successful correction.
