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

Calcaneal fracture is one of the most common foot and ankle fractures, but the best treatment of this fracture is still under debate. No matter the treatment strategy of this intra-articular calcaneal fracture, early and late complications frequently occur. In order to treat these complications, combination of various ostectomy, osteotomy, and arthrodesis techniques have been proposed to re-establish the calcaneal height, restore the talocalcaneal relationship, and create a stable, plantigrade foot. In contrast to this approach of addressing all the deformities, another feasible approach is concentrating on those aspects that are the most clinically pressing.10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 Different arthroscopic and endoscopic approaches focused on the patient's symptoms and not the correction of the talocalcaneal relationship or restoration of the height or length of the calcaneus have been proposed to deal with late complications of calcaneal fractures. The purpose of this technical note is to describe the details of endoscopic screw removal, debridement of the peroneal tendons, and subtalar joint and lateral calcaneal ostectomy for management of chronic heel pain after calcaneal fracture. It has the advantage of dealing with various sources of lateral heel pain after calcaneal fracture, including the subtalar joint, peroneal tendons, lateral calcaneal cortical bulge and screws.
