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

objectivesAnatomical reconstruction of the lateral ligament complex in the ankle. INDICATIONS: Chronic lateral ankle instability. CONTRAINDICATIONS: Severe osteoarthritis, obesity, hindfoot varus, general contraindications (infection, circulatory disorders, diabetic foot syndrome). SURGICAL TECHNIQUE: Anatomical V‑shaped reconstruction of the lateral ligament complex with half of the peroneus brevis tendon and additional retinaculum stabilization. POSTOPERATIVE MANAGEMENT: Lower leg orthesis (e. g. protect.CAT Walker, medi GmbH, Bayreuth, Germany) for 6 weeks. Week 1-2, no weight bearing, no active pro- and supination. Starting in week 3-4, begin with partial weight bearing, pain adapted. Starting in week 7, free range of motion, begin with progressive training.

resultsBetween March 2014 and June 2016, 16 patients (6 female, 10 male) were treated with the above-named technique. Average age was 32.8 years (range 17.9-57.1 years). Ten patients completed the 6‑ and 12-month follow-ups. None of these 10 patients reported a feeling of instability. In the clinical examination, the lateral ligament complex was stable. Patients showed a free range of motion at the 12-month follow-up.
