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

BACKGROUND/

aimTo date, multiple different surgical techniques have been established for hallux valgus surgery, with each technique having its unique advantages and limitations. The open distal chevron osteotomy is widely accepted, but increasing patient demands have led several minimally invasive (MIS) techniques to be described in recent years. The aim of this study was to compare outcomes after minimally invasive (MIS) distal chevron osteotomy and the minimally invasive Reverdin-Isham method. PATIENTS AND

methodsWe assessed clinical and radiographic outcomes after MIS chevron osteotomy in 57 feet of 49 consecutive patients with a mean follow-up of 58.9 (range=39.0-85.4) months. Outcomes after MIS Reverdin-Isham osteotomy were analyzed by means of a systematic literature review with a minimum follow-up of 6 months.

resultsRadiographic outcomes were significantly better in the MIS chevron cohort for intermetatarsal angle (p<0.001), hallux valgus angle and distal metacarpal articular angle (p<0.05). Concerning clinical outcomes, both methods provided comparable improvement.

conclusionMIS distal chevron osteotomy in mild to moderate hallux valgus deformity correction results in superior radiographic outcomes compared to the MIS Reverdin-Isham osteotomy. Sufficient correction of IMA cannot be achieved with the MIS Reverdin-Isham osteotomy.
