Reverse V osteotomy and treatment of cubitus varus deformity - Results and experience.
Article in Journal of clinical orthopaedics and trauma. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
introductionCubitus varus is a most common repercussion of malunited supracondylar fracture of humerus in paediatric age group. Initially, valgus osteotomies were in trend, but due to higher rate of complications, these procedures are not in trends today, as they were earlier. Here, we are sharing our experience and results of reverse V osteotomy done for cubitus varus. MATERIAL AND
methodReverse V osteotomy was done on 20 patients of cubitus varus (due to malunited supracondylar fracture of humerus). After correcting the deformity, cross K-wires and wiring (from lateral side) or Y-shaped plate was used for internal fixation. Y-shaped plate was used in older (in 20% cases) and K-wire was used for internal fixation in younger patients. All the patients underwent follow-up by clinical-radiological means and the analysis of functional outcome was done by the criteria of Oppenheim et al.
resultsBased on the Oppenheim's criteria, our results were 90% excellent and 10% good, among the 20 cases.
conclusionWe concluded in this study that reverse V osteotomy provides inherent stability and its stable behaviour further strengthened by internal fixation. It is a safe technique for correcting cubitus varus with aesthetic satisfaction.
