Modified Brostrom-Gould surgical procedure for chronic lateral ankle instability compared with other operations: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in BMC musculoskeletal disorders, 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
backgroundThis study performed a randomized trial data meta-analysis to assess The Modified Brostrom-Gould (MBG) for proven chronic lateral ankle instability (CLAI).
methodsAll published randomized clinical trials comparing MBG and other operations were found by searching the Cochrane Library, EMBASE, and PubMed databases. The Review Manager 5.4 software was used to compare the two groups regarding postoperative functional score, ankle stability, and complications. Risk Ratio (RR) and Mean Differences (MD) were used in meta-analyses.
results8 experiments are suitable for it, 426 patients were enrolled, and 222 patients underwent other operations surgery. Among the six outcome indicators, in terms of FAOS scores, the other operations group has an advantage, 6.53 points higher than MBG; others show no significant differences.
conclusionsBased on this meta-analysis, the authors believe that other surgical groups can achieve better outcomes than MBG in some aspects of CLAI treatment.
