Revision Achilles Tendon Repair Using Posterior Tibial Tendon Allograft and Flexor Hallucis Longus Transfer.

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
Achilles tendon ruptures are common injuries seen by orthopaedic surgeons. A myriad of surgical options have been used in the management of Achilles tendon ruptures, but currently no gold standard exists. Re-rupture of Achilles tendon injuries occurs 1.7% to 5.6% of the time, and there has been no direct relationship demonstrated between complications and repair techniques used. The aim of this technique is to provide a method of fixation for the patient with an Achilles tendon re-rupture that provides a stable repair construct and mitigates the potential sequela of re-rupture. We describe the treatment of an Achilles tendon re-rupture with the use of a flexor hallucis longus tendon transfer and posterior tibial tendon allograft for repair of an 8.5 cm tendon gap.
