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

The incidence of peroneal tendon disorders in the population is unknown and they are usually overlooked. We report two cases of peroneus brevis injuries and a comprehensive literature review was performed. The first case was a 53-year-old man presented with persistent pain on the lateral aspect on the left ankle during the last four years and difficulty to bear weight during the last year. MRI showed longitudinal tear of peroneus brevis tendon and the patient underwent surgical treatment. The second case was a 46-year-old woman with persistent pain on the lateral aspect of the ankle with a history of a road traffic accident two years ago. Although MRI showed a peroneus brevis tendon tear, this was a false positive finding. Surgical treatment revealed no tear and symphysiolysis managed to relieve patient's symptoms. Even though MRI is the most effective diagnostic tool in depicting peroneal tendon injuries, there are false positive findings. In cases when symptoms persist, surgical exploration is indicated.
