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
The superior gluteal artery is particularly at risk in pelvic fractures and surgical procedures. We report on a 74-year-old male patient with an unstable pelvic ring fracture, initially treated with an external fixator and bilateral sacroiliac (SI) screws. Postoperatively, persistently elevated inflammatory markers and a persistently low hemoglobin level suggested a hematoma most likely from an iatrogenic cause. Computed tomography (CT) imaging confirmed a 2 × 3 cm pseudoaneurysm of the superior gluteal artery. Hemostasis was successfully achieved through thrombin injection, hematoma evacuation and ligation. This case highlights that careful preoperative planning, detailed knowledge of vascular anatomy and early attention to laboratory parameters are essential for the prevention and detection of vascular injuries during SI screw implantation.
