Foot Osteoarthritis Frequency and Associated Factors in a Community-Based Cross-Sectional Study of White and African American Adults.
Article in Arthritis care & research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
objectiveFew studies have explored foot osteoarthritis (OA) in the general population. The purpose of this study was to determine the frequency of foot OA and identify associated factors in a cross-sectional analysis of a large community-based cohort.
methodsData were from the 2013-2015 study visit of the Johnston County OA Project. Radiographic OA of the foot was defined using the La Trobe radiographic atlas (≥2 osteophytes or joint space narrowing in at least 1 of 5 joints). Symptomatic OA of the foot was defined as foot radiographic OA with pain, aching, or stiffness in the same foot. At the foot-level, separate logistic regression models with generalized estimating equations to account for intraperson correlations were performed to examine associations of foot radiographic OA or symptomatic OA with age, body mass index (BMI), sex, race, educational attainment, and previous foot injury.
resultsOf 864 participants with available data (mean age 71 years, mean BMI 30 kg/m
conclusionFoot radiographic OA and foot symptoms were common in the sample, but both conditions simultaneously (i.e., symptomatic OA) occurred infrequently. Notably, obesity was linked with foot symptomatic OA, perhaps implicating metabolic or mechanical influences.
