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

Background: Preoperative deformity and hinge position are associated with the magnitude of the gap opening during corrective osteotomy. A larger opening gap angle is associated with a higher risk of complications. This cross-sectional study sought to identify a suitable hinge position that results in the smallest opening angle during tibial condylar valgus osteotomy (TCVO). Methods: The data of 66 arthritic knees treated by TCVO were included, comprising 16 knees with the hinge points selected medial to the center (group M), 21 knees with the hinge points selected at the center (group C), and 29 knees with the hinge points selected lateral to the center of the intercondylar eminence (group L). The opening gap angles and the correction amounts of the medial proximal tibial angle ( Results: The average Conclusions: The hinge point at the lateral beak of the intercondylar eminence results in the smallest opening angle and may be suitable for TCVO.
