[Prevalence and predictors of rebound deformity in the frontal plane : A literature review].
Review in Der Orthopade, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The present literature review presents the current state of the art on the prevalence and causes of the rebound phenomenon after successful correction of leg axis deformity using temporary epiphysiodesis in children and adolescents. A total of 20 studies was included by three independent reviewers. The validity of most studies regarding the rebound incidence is limited by a non-standardized follow-up after plate removal, heterogeneous patient groups with a small number of cases, and missing information on the definition of rebound. The rebound incidence in studies without fundamental limitations in study design is on an average about 50% and underlines the clinical relevance of the topic. Only four studies reported reasons or risk factors for the occurrence of a rebound. In particular, a young age at the beginning of treatment with high residual growth potential after implant removal represents an increased rebound risk, which can be minimized by appropriate overcorrection of the leg axis.
