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

objectiveEstablish a safe technique for high tibia osteotomy. INDICATIONS: Varus deformity of proximal tibia, high tibia osteotomy indicated. CONTRAINDICATIONS: Correct placement of retractor not possible. SURGICAL TECHNIQUE: Skin incision (6-8 cm) over the medial tibia. Dissection of the Pes anserinus tendons and the medial collateral ligament. Partial release of the distal medial collateral ligament by subperiosteal stripping of the distal part of the ligament. Incision of the gastrocnemius fascia posterior to the medial collateral ligament. Dissection of a soft tissue tunnel between periosteum of the tibia and popliteus muscle. Insertion of retractor, fluoroscopic adjustment in frontal plane according to the planned level of osteotomy. POSTOPERATIVE MANAGEMENT: Postoperative protocol according to the osteotomy technique and implant used.

resultsNo bleeding complications since introduction of retractor in 22 cases. No changes in standard technique or incision necessary due to use of retractor.
