Three-dimensional computed tomography mapping of 136 tongue-type calcaneal fractures from a single centre.
Article in Annals of translational medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
backgroundThis study aimed to evaluate tongue-type calcaneal fractures using three-dimensional (3D) computed tomography (CT) mapping method.
methodsA consecutive series of 136 tongue-type calcaneal fractures was used. CT data were used to reconstruct and reposition the 3D calcaneus body. E-3D Medical 18.01 software was used to superimpose the fractured calcaneal entity on the template, and the fracture line was drawn on the template. Finally, the heatmap was obtained using the fracture statistical analysis function. At the same time, the distribution of fracture lines in the anterior part of the calcaneus (APC) was recorded. Cases were divided into the following 3 subtypes according to the distribution of the tongue-type fracture lines of the calcaneal body: medial-lateral (Group A), upper-lateral (Group B), and upper-lateral-medial (Group C).
resultsThere were 68 cases in Group A, 48 cases in Group B, and 20 cases in Group C. Based on subtype, the characteristic fracture map of Groups A, B and C was constructed. The APC was evenly divided into zones A, B, and C from lateral to medial. In Group A, the most common types involve APC were Type AC (24, 35.3%) and Type A (11, 16.2%). In Group B, the most common types were Type AC (20, 41.7%), Type AB (8, 16.7%) and Type C (8, 16.7%). In Group C, the most common types were Type AC (8, 40.0%) and Type A (5, 25.0%).
conclusionsThis study investigates the distribution characteristics of fracture lines in subgroups of tongue-type calcaneal fractures for the first time. The results can help doctors improve their understanding of tongue-type calcaneal fractures, optimize internal fixation design, and provide a standard model for biomechanical experiments.
