A Review of Pediatric Heel Pain.
Review in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The objective of this review article is to provide orthopaedic surgeons and general practitioners a reference and guidance for the evaluation and workup of heel pain in pediatric patients. The authors performed a comprehensive literature search to review the etiologies and management of heel pain in patients <18 years of age. Relevant studies in Medline/PubMed and EMBASE were searched from inception to March 3, 2022 using medical subject headings and text words without limitations on language or study type. The initial search utilized the following Boolean operators: (children) AND (heel pain); (pediatric) AND (heel pain). Heel pain in the pediatric population is usually a benign condition. Sever's apophysitis is the most common etiology of heel pain in pediatric patients. Most causes of heel pain in the pediatric population do not require imaging or extensive workup. However, providers must maintain a high index of suspicion for symptoms that could indicate a more severe pathology.
