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

introductionThe Ponseti method has been universally adopted for the treatment of children's neglected clubfoot, but not for adult patients. In low- and middle-income countries, there are adult patients with neglected CTEV that remains untreated because the patients have limited access to specialized treatment. CASE REPORT: The Ponseti method was applied in a 26-year-old adult female patient with neglected clubfoot with no previous treatment. The feet had functional mobility and no residual deformities at the end of follow-upperiod. An abduction foot orthosis was prescribed for 1 year after casting period. The patient returned to normal activities after an8-month follow-up period.

conclusionThis unique therapeutic success in an adult patient with neglected idiopathic bilateral clubfoot showed that the Ponseti method was a good treatment option.
