Review in Der Unfallchirurg, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
In 2020 a total of 126 patients attended the practice with distortion trauma of the ankle. Based on a thorough clinical and ultrasound examination 25 ligamentous injuries of the anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL, 9.8%), 8 osseous ligament avulsions (6.3%), 7 injuries of the lateral calcaneocuboid ligament (CC ligament, 5.6%), 5 lesions of the calcaneofibular ligament (CFL) each combined with ATFL injuries (3.9%) and 1 syndesmosis injury (0.6%) were recorded. This didactic article presents a comprehensible ultrasound examination course in an instructive manner from the clinical practice. Identification of osseous and ligamentous landmarks is often difficult clinically and even in an anatomical preparation but it can easily be done using ultrasound. Hemarthrosis of the ankle has a high predictive value with respect to an associated ligament tear and is easily detectable by ultrasound. Injuries of the ATFL, the anterior syndesmosis and damage to the lateral malleolar epiphysis can easily be clearly distinguished sonographically. A positive decompression test confirms the distal avulsion of the ATFL. Sonographic stability testing of the AFTL can be carried out immediately after the clinical examination in the same position and visualized on the monitor. The talofibular advance can be measured on the monitor. Instability of the anterior syndesmosis can be visually demonstrated on the monitor using the sonographic Frick test. A final ultrasound control on the monitor confirms the structural healing and the re-establishment of ligamentous stability.
