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

Open-wedge high tibial osteotomy (OW-HTO) is an effective surgical intervention for medial-compartment knee osteoarthritis. However, the osteotomized gap might be a disadvantage in OW-HTO because it can cause problems such as delayed bone union or loss of correction. These issues can be minimized by using autologous bone graft in the osteotomized gap, which is known to be the fastest and most clinically satisfactory gap filler. The primary mechanical stability of the osteotomy site in OW-HTO is essential for early weight bearing after surgery. Therefore, we introduce the combination of a cylindrical autologous bone grafting technique and a metallic block insertion for faster bone union and better primary stability of the site in OW-HTO. We expect that the described procedure will enable early postoperative weight bearing and, thereby, allow an early return to normal function.
