Femoral Derotational Osteotomies.
Review in Current reviews in musculoskeletal medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 47 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
purpose of reviewFemoral derotational osteotomies are performed to correct residual symptomatic increased femoral torsion in adolescents and adults. Typical indications are anterior knee pain caused by patellar maltracking and patellofemoral instability. There is still no consensus as to what the correct indication is and which surgical techniques lead to the best outcomes in performing a femoral derotational osteotomy. RECENT
findingsGood early clinical outcomes have been reported. However, long-term studies and data on return to play are lacking. Surgery often is performed according to the surgeon's experience. There is no evidence to support decisions regarding surgical technique or level of osteotomy. Femoral derotational osteotomy is the treatment of choice in patients with symptomatic excessive anteversion and torsional malalignment of the femur. Multiple techniques have shown good clinical results with high patient satisfaction. Future studies however must focus on radiographic and clinical assessment to understand different subtypes of torsional deformity and its implication on operative therapy.
