Article in Cureus, 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
We describe the first case of a 62-year-old female symptomatic patient with multiple comorbidities presenting with coronal limb malalignment due to scoliosis and osteoarthritis who underwent a combined total hip arthroplasty and biplane opening wedge osteotomy of the distal femur in one procedure. It is essential to realize that in patients who present with multiple comorbidities, combining different established procedures should be considered as a therapeutic option. We detail the operative procedure, preoperative considerations, and postoperative rehabilitation. By reviewing the literature on operative techniques, we highlight how our findings can be applied to similar cases with multiple comorbidities. Our report underscores the importance of considering combined procedures as a viable therapeutic option for patients with complex medical histories.
