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

Large talar bone cyst can cause pathologic fracture and damage to the articular cartilage, resulting in persistent swelling and pain of the subtalar joint and ankle joint. For a symptomatic cyst not responding to conservative treatment, surgery can be considered. Open debridement and bone grafting frequently require extensive soft-tissue dissection or even different types of malleolar osteotomy for proper access to the lesion. Arthroscopic treatment of talar bone cyst is a feasible alternative minimally invasive approach to reduce surgical trauma and eliminate the need for osteotomy. Bone cyst of the anterior part of the talar body can be debrided via a bone window of the talar neck, which is normally devoid of cartilage. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe the technique of arthroscopic treatment of bone cyst of anterior half of the talar body. This minimally invasive approach does not disrupt the normal articular cartilage of the talar dome.
