The acute Charcot foot in diabetics: Diagnosis and management.
Article in EFORT open reviews, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
Acute Charcot foot is a diagnostic challenge.The exact pathophysiology is not fully understood.Acute Charcot foot is often present with a history of trauma or cellulitis which does not respond to antibiotics.The condition is best managed within a multidisciplinary team.The mainstay of the treatment is mechanical off-loading and total contact casting.Surgery is reserved for select cases.
