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

Klippel-Trénaunay-Weber syndrome (KTWS) is a rare condition characterized by a classic clinical triad. However, it can also have other features, such as cavocarus foot deformity, which is a rare presentation in a patient with KTWS. In this case report, we present our surgical technique of correcting such a complex deformity. Also, there are no other similar cases reported in the literature. An 18-year-old girl who is a known case of KTWS with a complaint of progressive unilateral left foot deformity. Her examination, revealed a rigid pes cavus with an equinus deformity in the left foot. Radiography of the left foot revealed marked cavus as well as hindfoot and forefoot varus. A successful surgical correction of the deformity was described in a stepwise fashion. The management of foot cavocarus deformity in KTWS patients is associated with high intra- and post-operative risk due to its complexity. Therefore, the management requires a multidisciplinary team approach.
