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

Renal osteodystrophy (ROD) is a complex and rare entity that refers to a large spectrum of abnormalities of skeletal homeostasis in patients suffering from chronic kidney disease. The goal of this study was to present the outcome of the very rare case of an adult with severe deformity of painful bilateral valgus knees due to ROD, requiring multilevel osteotomies above and below the knee. A 42-year-old male patient was admitted to our department with painful severe bilateral valgus knees deformity due to ROD. The patient underwent bilateral lateral opening-wedge osteotomy of distal femur and medial tibial closing-wedge osteotomy. The osteotomies site healed in 8 weeks without complications. The surgical treatment of lower limb valgus knee deformities secondary to ROD is a challenging and demanding procedure. In our patient, the femoral opening-wedge osteotomy with blade-plate fixation, and tibial closing-wedge osteotomy with plate fixation, restored almost normal knee congruency to prevent lateral unicompartmental degenerative deterioration of the knee.
