Talus bone: normal anatomy, anatomical variations and clinical correlations.
Review in Anatomical science international, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Talus is a pivotal bone that assists in easy and correct locomotion and transfers body weight from the shin to the foot. Despite its small size, it is implicated in many clinical disorders. Familiarity with the anatomy of the talus and its anatomical variations is essential for the diagnosis of any disorder related to these variations. Furthermore, orthopedic surgeons must be fully aware by this anatomy during podiatry procedures. In this review, we attempt to present its anatomy in a simple, updated and comprehensive manner. We have also added the anatomical variations and some clinical points relevant to the unique and complex anatomy of talus. The talus has no muscle attachment. However, it does have many ligaments attached to it and others around it to keep it in place. Moreover, the bone plays a pig role in movements due to its involvement in many joints. Most of its surface is covered with articular cartilage. Therefore, its blood supply is relatively poor. This puts the talus at greater risk for poor healing as well as more complications in the event of injury than any other bone. We hope this review will make it easier for clinicians to pursue and understand the updated essential knowledge of one of the most complex bone anatomies that they need in their clinical practice.
