1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Charcot arthropathy is an insidious condition affecting the lower limbs of diabetic patients. It is a complication of diabetic neuropathy resulting from subsequent Wallerian degeneration of the nerves. This complication may eventually lead to limb amputation and a poor patient prognosis if not diagnosed and treated successfully. Herein, we report the case of a 73-year-old female who presented with rapidly progressive bilateral Charcot foot over a 5-week period, necessitating an exostectomy on the mid foot, specifically on the cuboid bone and the navicular cuneiform joint. Her presentation with rapidly progressing foot ulcers on the plantar aspect prompted initial treatment based on osteomyelitis. The report will therefore serve as a useful guide on how to properly treat Charcot foot, which may present in an atypical manner.
