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

A 49-year-old female sustained a trimalleolar fracture concurrent with 10 years history of symptomatic osteochondral lesions of the talus. We performed a costal cartilage grafting for osteochondral lesions of the talus through the inherent medial malleolar fracture gap, followed by internal fixation of the fracture. During the follow-up, the fracture healed within the expected time, accompanied by favorable functional outcomes and pre-injury pain relief. At 3 years postoperatively, the graft merged with the bone bed of the talus, and progressive endochondral ossification was observed at the graft-bone interface. The case provides us a chance to verify whether the costal cartilage grafting is reliable for the treatment of osteochondral lesions of the talus.
