PEDIATRIC FLEXIBLE VALGUS FLATFOOT CORRECTION BY ARTHROEREISIS.
Article in Acta ortopedica brasileira. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveThis article aimed to evaluate the efficacy of arthroereisis using synthetic polyethylene implants to correct excessive valgus deformity in pediatric patients with flexible valgus flatfoot.
methodsRetrospective study of 20 pediatric patients with flexible valgus flatfoot, totaling 23 feet, between five and 14 years old, operated between January 2009 and July 2016. Clinical evaluations were performed by the Valenti podoscopic classification and the American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society criteria, based on radiographic images and podoscopic analysis. These patients underwent surgical treatment with the introduction of a synthetic implant in the sinus tarsi. Multiple linear regression analysis with Backward selection of variables, angles of pre and postoperative of radiographic images of the patients submitted to arthroereisis were performed.
resultsThe arthroereisis with interposition of synthetic material was satisfactory, considering that 91% of the cases presented clinical and radiographic improvement, with correction of angles and improvement in deformity degrees. Two cases presented implant loosening. The variables of the Bordelon and Pitch angles significantly influenced (p < 0,05) the improvement of the correction of deformity degrees.
conclusionThe arthroereisis with the interposition of synthetic polyethylene material showed to be an effective technique for flexible flatfoot in symptomatic pediatric patients.
