Analysis of factors affecting the prognosis of osteochondral lesions of the talus.
Article in International orthopaedics, 2023. 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
purposeThis study aims to analyze the correlation between the prognosis of osteochondral lesions of the talus and patient age, gender, duration of illness, and injury location, surface area, depth, and volume.
methodsA retrospective analysis of 44 patients who underwent talus osteochondral transplantation in the Department of Foot and Ankle Surgery of our hospital between January 2017 and December 2020 was performed. The clinical medical records of the patients were collected, and the location of the osteochondral lesion of the talus was determined according to the nine-division method. The surface area, depth, and volume of the osteochondral lesion of the talus were measured using mimics software in all patients. The visual analog scale (VAS), the American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS), and the SF-36 quality of life questionnaire scores were evaluated before surgery and at the last follow-up, and correlation analysis was performed.
resultsOf 44 patients, 30 were followed up with a mean period of 24.33 ± 12.19 months. There were 18 men and 12 women, with an average age of 40.73 ± 10.57 years and an average disease duration of 28.30 ± 21.25 months. The VAS, AOFAS, and SF-36 scores of all patients at the last follow-up were significantly better than those before surgery. The degree of post-operative symptom improvement was not correlated with age, sex, duration of illness, and injury location, surface area, depth, and volume.
conclusionThe prognosis of osteochondral lesion of the talus is not related to patient age, gender, duration of disease, or injury location, surface area, depth, and volume.
