Peroneus brevis tear caused by an impingement between hypertrophied peroneal tubercle and lateral malleolus.

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
We report a 15-year-old female patient who sustained peroneus brevis injury caused by an impingement between the hypertrophied peroneal tubercle and lateral malleolus. The patient had pain for 3 years in the lateral side of her left ankle with unsuccessful conservative treatment. The oblique sagittal images of 3-dimensional magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasonography were useful in depicting the peroneus brevis injury and identifying the location of impingement between the hypertrophied peroneal tubercle and the tip of the lateral malleolus. The flatfoot deformity of the patient further aggravated the impingement. The patient was treated surgically, with excision of the enlarged tubercle and tendon repair. The ankle pain resolved 12 months postoperatively. Although rare, clinicians should recognize this condition as the cause of lateral ankle pain.
