[Triple arthrodesis for correction of cavovarus deformity].
Review in Operative Orthopadie und Traumatologie, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveThe aim is to correct the underlying cavovarus deformity and to achieve a pain-free and stable hindfoot. INDICATIONS: Rigid neurologic, posttraumatic, congenital, and idiopathic cavovarus deformities. CONTRAINDICATIONS: General surgical or anesthesiological risks, infections, critical soft tissue conditions, neurovascular impairment of the lower extremity, noncompliance, patients with severely reduced bone quality, insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, smoking. SURGICAL TECHNIQUE: The talonavicular and subtalar joints are exposed using a single medial approach. Joint cartilage is carefully debrided. Hindfoot reposition with complete correction of cavovarus deformity in all three planes. Joints are stabilized using cannulated screws, followed by wound closure. POSTOPERATIVE MANAGEMENT: A soft wound dressing is used. Thromboprophylaxis is recommended. Patient mobilization starts on postoperative day 1 using a stabilizing walking boot or cast for 6 weeks with 15 kg partial weight bearing. Clinical and radiographic follow-up 6 weeks postoperatively to assess osseous consolidation at the arthrodesis site. Following clinical and radiographic follow-up at 6 weeks, full weight bearing is gradually initiated.
resultsBetween January 2012 and July 2014, triple arthrodesis was performed in 11 patients with a mean age of 62 ± 14 years due to cavovarus deformity. The mean follow-up was 34 ± 8 months (range 24-48 months). In all patients, the cavovarus deformity was substantially corrected. Significant pain relief from 7.1 ± 2.2 (range 5-10) to 1.8 ± 1.5 (range 0-4) on the visual analogue scale was observed.
