Abstract
- PURPOSE: To systematically evaluate the clinical efficacy of reamed and nonreamed intramedullary nailing in treatment of closed tibial fractures with Cochrane systematic review methods. METHODS: According to the Cochrane systematic review methods, literatures were retrieved from Cochrane library, PubMed, EMbase and other database. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and quasi-randomized controlled clinical trials about reamed and nonreamed intramedullary nailing in the treatment of closed tibial fractures were collected and RevMan 5.0 was chosen for meta-analysis. RESULTS: A total of seven studies were included in this meta-analysis. Reamed intramedullary nailing was better than nonreamed intramedullary nailing in nonunion rate [P = 0.02, RR = 0.46, 95% CI: (0.24, 0.91)] and implant failure rate [P
