Calcaneal cuboid joint motion and osteotomy stability in children one year after calcaneal lengthening osteotomy.

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
introductionFlexible pes planovalgus in children may be corrected with a calcaneal lengthening osteotomy (CLO).However, CLO surgery may displace the distal calcaneal fragment dorsally and affect the motion in the calcaneal-cuboid joint (CCJ). We used radiostereometric analysis (RSA) to evaluate CCJ motion and CLO stability in children one year after CLO.
methodsTen patients (10 feet) with symptomatic flexible pes planovalgus were investigated one year after CLO. Mean age was 11.5 years (range 8.2-14.2). Standardised RSA measurements of the foot were obtained one year after surgery without and with weight-bearing (single leg stance). Tantalum markers inserted during surgery, were used to described the CCJ motion as cuboid bone motion with respect to the distal calcaneus, and the CLO stability as distal calcaneal migration with respect to the proximal calcaneus.
resultsOne year after surgery the CLO was stable. The motion in the CCJ upon full weight-bearing was mean -1.04 mm (CI95% -1.40; -0.67) joint distraction, mean 2.27 mm (CI95% 1.57; 2.96) cuboid dorsal translation, mean -1.94 mm (CI 95% -2.68; -1.20) cuboid medial translation, and mean 7.43° (CI 95% 3.97; 10.88) adduction.
conclusionThe motion in the CCJ of children with CLO corrections for pes planovalgus is similar to that of adults during stance load with a normal foot posture and the patients were asymptomatic. Marker-based RSA may be used to evaluate causalities of foot symptoms after CLO surgery.
