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
Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of Ilizarov technique combined with soft tissue release and muscle strength balance in the treatment of spastic clubfoot in adolescents with cerebral palsy. Methods: A retrospective analysis of clinical data of 29 cases (33 feet) of cerebral palsy spastic clubfoot deformity conformed to the selection criteria between June 2011 and September 2016. Among them, 17 were male (20 feet) and 12 were female (13 feet) with an age range from 13 to 28 years (mean, 17.6 years). According to Diméglio classification, 19 feet were rated as gradeⅡ and 14 feet as grade Ⅲ. All patients were treated with soft tissue release and muscle balance, while using Ilizarov technique to correct varus deformity. Began to gradually adjust the external fixator after 5-7 days of operation, until to reach satisfactory foot ankle form. Orthopedic brace was used after removal of external fixator, and the wearing time gradually reduced to completely abandon the brace. Results: All 29 patients (33 feet) were followed up 12-22 months with an average of 18 months. All patients restored line plantar foot without needle infection and nerve or vessel injury. One foot had a mild relapse of deformity at 6 months after removal of external fixator, and the gait restored to normal after symptomatic treatment. The rest of 32 feet had no deformity recurrence during the follow-up. At last follow-up, International Club Foot Study Group (ICFSG) score (5.21±3.91) was significantly lower than the preoperative score (36.73±4.80), and the difference was significant ( Conclusion: Ilizarov technique is effective in treatment of clubfoot. And it is also a feasible method to treat spastic clubfoot in adolescents with cerebral palsy when combined with appropriate soft tissue surgery according to the patient's symptoms and signs.
