Novel Radiographic Measurements for Operatively Treated Haglund's Deformity.
Article in Tomography (Ann Arbor, Mich.), 2022. 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
backgroundHaglund's deformity, which is characterized by a bony prominence of the posterosuperior aspect of the calcaneus, causes posterior heel pain. To date, there is no standard radiographic parameter to diagnose symptomatic Haglund's deformity. Herein, we proposed novel radiographic measurements to distinguish between patients with and without symptomatic Haglund's deformity.
methodsWe retrospectively evaluated ankle radiographs of 43 patients who underwent surgery for symptomatic Haglund's deformity (Haglund group) and 41 healthy individuals (control group) free of heel complaints. Fowler-Phillip angle (FPA), Heneghan-Pavlov parallel pitch lines (PPL), Haglund's deformity height, bump height, and bump-calcaneus ratio were measured and compared between the groups. Furthermore, the reliability and cut-off value of each parameter were validated via ICC and ROC curve analysis, respectively.

conclusionsThis study proposes two novel radiographic parameters to identify operatively treated Haglund's deformity, namely bump height and bump-calcaneus ratio. They are easy to measure and intuitive. Both of them are effective diagnostic parameters for Haglund's deformity. Furthermore, bump-calcaneus ratio is more reliable diagnostic parameter than bump height.
