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

objectiveTo investigate the short-term effectiveness of modified tarsal sinus approach and traditional tarsal sinus approach in the treatment of Sanders Ⅱ-Ⅲ type calcaneal fractures.

methodsBetween January 2015 and August 2017, 53 patients with Sanders Ⅱ-Ⅲ type calcaneal fractures were selected and divided into observation group (21 cases, using modified tarsal sinus approach for fracture reduction after exposure of the subtalar joint below the long and short fibular tendon) and control group (32 cases, using traditional tarsal sinus approach) by random number method. There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of gender, age, side, cause of injury, fracture type, injury to operation time, and preoperative Böhler angle, Gissane angle, visual analogue scale (VAS) core (

resultsAll the 53 patients successfully completed the operation without serious complications such as vascular and nerve injury and perioperative death. There was no significant difference in operation time and postoperative drainage volume between the two groups (

conclusionThe modified tarsal sinus approach for the treatment of Sanders Ⅱ-Ⅲ type calcaneal fractures has the advantages of minimal invasion, clear reduction under direct vision, reliable reduction and fixation, and low incision complications.
