Efficacy of calcium phosphate cementing in the surgical treatment of Sanders Type II and III calcaneal fractures using screw fixation with sinus tarsi approach.
Article in Acta orthopaedica et traumatologica turcica, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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 study aimed to determine the effectiveness of calcium phosphate cementing in the surgical treatment of Sanders type II and III calcaneal fractures using screw fixation with sinus tarsi approach.
methodsIn this retrospective study, 85 feet of 84 patients (74 males, 10 females; mean age 43 [17-61] years) in whom screw fixation was performed using the sinus tarsi approach for Sanders type II or III calcaneal fractures were included. The mean follow-up was 28 (14-39) months. Patients were categorized into 2 groups on the basis of whether calcium phosphate cement (CPC) was used. Group 1 had 37 patients with CPC (38 calcaneal fractures) and group 2 had 47 patients without CPC (47 calcaneal fractures). In the clinical assessment, the American Orthopedic Foot Ankle Society (AOFAS) hind foot score and the Maryland Foot Score (MFS) were used at the final follow-up. In the radiological assessment, Bohler's angle on plain radiograph and posterior facet step-off on computed tomography were measured pre-and postoperatively.
resultsAt the final follow-up, the mean Bohler's angle was 26.2° (20°-33°) in group 1 and 26° (17°-30°) in group 2 (P = 0.85). The mean posterior facet step-off was 1.6 (0-5) mm in group 1 and 1.5 (0-5) mm in group 2 (P = 0.85). The mean AOFAS score was 83.8 (59-100) in group 1 and 85.8 (60-100) in group 2 (P = 0.5). The mean MFS was 86.3 (66-100) in group 1 and 87.7 (66-100) in group 2 (P = 0.62).
conclusionEvidence from this study have shown that CPC may have no significant effect on clinical and radiological outcomes in the surgical treatment of Sanders type II and III calcaneal fractures using screw fixation with sinus tarsi approach.
