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

Spontaneous or minimal-trauma ruptures of the quadriceps tendon are an exceptional clinical entity, representing a highly unusual presentation even among patients with underlying metabolic conditions, including uremic patients on chronic hemodialysis. We report the case of a 40-year-old male patient on chronic hemodialysis with severe secondary hyperparathyroidism, who was admitted for a rupture of the left quadriceps tendon following minimal trauma. Treatment consisted of the surgical reconstruction of the extensor apparatus and management of his hyperparathyroidism.
