Anatomical basis of a pedicled cuboid bone graft based on the lateral tarsal artery for talar avascular necrosis.
Article in Surgical and radiologic anatomy : SRA, 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
purposeVascularized pedicled bone-grafting from the cuboid to the talus provides low donor site morbidity and satisfactory outcomes in patients with early-stage talar avascular necrosis. We investigated the anatomy of the rotational vascularized pedicled bone graft from the cuboid.
methods15 embalmed cadaver specimens were perfused with red latex via the popliteal artery. The lateral malleolus was dissected. The course of the lateral tarsal artery and the vascular territory in the cuboid supplied by the lateral tarsal artery were observed. Vessel diameters were measured.
resultsThe course of the lateral tarsal artery to the cuboid was consistent, and a vascularized pedicle of the lateral tarsal artery was present in all specimens. Mean diameter of the lateral tarsal artery was 1.40 ± 0.12 mm (range 1.67-1.25). Mean length of the vascularized pedicle was 67.15 ± 3.18 mm (range 62.43-74.36). The pedicle bone graft was long enough to reach the bony border of both the lateral and medial malleolus.
conclusionA vascularized pedicled cuboid bone graft based on the lateral tarsal artery has clinical utility for early-stage talar avascular necrosis.
