Internal architecture of calcaneus: correlations with mechanics and pathoanatomy of calcaneal fractures.
Article in Surgical and radiologic anatomy : SRA, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundAvailable studies on internal architecture of the calcaneus are cursory and contradictory. Present study focused on elaborate descriptions of the different trabecular groups and their correlation with the fractures of this bone.
methodTo study the internal architecture, 50 dry adult human calcanei were sectioned in various planes and grossly dissected.
resultsSix different groups (A-F) of lamellae were identified. Based on the observations of trabecular architecture, potential weak areas in this bone were identified. The predicted weak zones correlate well with the fracture lines described in the calcaneus and provide anatomical basis for their occurrence.
conclusionsThis study underscores the major influence of the internal architecture of the calcaneus in predicting the fracture lines. The findings can be utilized to classify fractures of calcaneus, which has been a topic of ongoing debate. Knowledge of weak zones will aid clinicians to improve the techniques of internal fixation.
