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

introductionAn increasing number of ankle injuries with osteochondral lesions (OCL) also include lesions of the distal tibia. Therefore, the German Cartilage Society database is used to describe and examine the characteristics of these lesions and, early on, the results of different surgical therapies on the clinical outcome. MATERIALS AND

methodsForty-seven patients out of 844 registered in the German Cartilage Society database met the inclusion criteria showing an OCL of the distal tibia (OLDT). Sixteen of them also presented a 1-year follow-up regarding the Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM). Further evaluations were included in the follow-up, such as the Foot and Ankle Outcome Score (FAOS) and the Visual Analogue Scale for pain (VAS).

resultsThe patients' mean age was 35 ± 11 with a mean BMI in the range of overweight (26/27 ± 5 kg/m

conclusionThis study presents baseline data of OLDT based on data from a large database. BMS and scaffolds were the treatment of choice but did not present significant improvement after a 1-year follow-up.
