Dorsalis pedis artery aneurysm.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Aneurysm of the pedal arteries is uncommon. Dorsalis pedis aneurysms are a clinically rare phenomenon. We present a case of traumatic fusiform aneurysm of the dorsalis pedis artery in an otherwise well 53-year-old Caucasian man. Initial history was suggestive of micro-embolic disease to the medial toes of the left foot and on examination pulses were palpable throughout the lower limbs with a strong, palpable dorasalis pedis pulse. Ankle brachial pressure indexes were normal but reduced toe pressures to the left toes. Colour flow duplex imaging revealed aneurysmal dilation, involving all layers of artery wall, with irregular intraluminal thrombus across a 16-mm segment. Subsequent CTA run-off revealed all vessels were patent in the left lower limb. Due to concerns over further embolisation, our patient underwent successful ligation of the his dorsalis pedis. He had an uneventful post-operative recovery.
