[The role of arthroscopy in diagnostics and treatment of arthritis of the ankle joint].
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
The arthroscopic treatment of arthritis of the ankle joint is very limited and is only indicated for early stages of arthritis with impingement, strictly localized forms and more for young patients. The most important aim of arthroscopy is to improve the range of motion (ROM) of the ankle by removal of bony projections (dorsal and ventral) and an extensive synovectomy with debridement. In cases of narrowing of the joint space to less than 2 mm and/or malalignment, the indications for arthroscopy should be considered very cautiously. This is independent of the localization of the narrowing, especially if the complete joint is affected. If necessary, arthroscopy can then be carried out as an additional intervention in cases of conversion osteotomy in order to improve the ROM.
