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

Introduction: Isolated osteomyelitis of the cuboid is a rare entity with very few case reports worldwide. A variety of treatment methods are described for these lesions, both single-stage and two staged and ranges from simple curettage to bone grafting and arthrodesis. Case Report: We present a series of two cases of chronic osteomyelitis in young adults due to puncture wound over the lateral foot. Both patients presented with purulent discharge from sinus over lateral foot. There was no involvement of adjoining bones in them. Culture yielded Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Both patients were treated with adequate curetting, saucerization with cancellous bone grafting in one of the cases. Both wounds healed uneventfully with good ankle and hindfoot function. Conclusion: The cuboid is a rare site of chronic osteomyelitis due to punture wounds with foreign bodies, especially in rural population. With meticulous curettage and bone grafting, the infection can be eradicated reliably and usually with good residual function.
