Challenges in Talus Fracture-dislocations - A Case Report.
Article in Journal of orthopaedic case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Fractures of the talus and its associated hindfoot dislocations are uncommon. They usually result from high-energy trauma. These fractures can lead to permanent disability. Optimal treatment relies on accurate evaluation of the injury with proper imaging to identify the fracture pattern and associated injuries and to be able to make an appropriate pre-operative plan. Avoiding soft-tissue complications, avascular necrosis, and post-traumatic arthrosis are the main goal of treatment. Case Report: We report a case of concomitant left talar neck and body fracture associated with a fracture of the medial malleolus in a 46-year-old male. We performed a closed reduction of the subtalar joint followed by an open reduction internal fixation of the talar neck/body and medial malleolus fractures. Conclusion: At 12 weeks following the treatment, the patient had good movement with minimal discomfort on dorsiflexion, he was able to ambulate with no limp. Radiographs showed appropriate healing of the fracture. The patient was able to go back to his work with no restrictions as of publication of this report. Talus fracture dislocations are not benign in nature. Meticulous attention to soft-tissue management, anatomic reduction and fixation as well as adequate post-operative follow-up is needed to obtain a satisfactory outcome and avoid the detrimental sequalae of avascular necrosis and post-traumatic arthrosis.
