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
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to validate the accuracy and reliability of arthroscopic markers of distal insertion of the calcaneofibular ligament (CFL), and to compare the calcaneus bone tunnels of the CFL that were made under arthroscopy and open procedures. Methods: Fifty-seven patients who underwent lateral ankle ligament reconstruction procedures were enrolled and divided into open ( Results: No significant intergroup differences were observed between the parameters. When the bone tunnels of the CFL were referenced to the cross point of tangential lines of the talar posterior edge and deepest point of the subtalar joint, and the cross point of the fibular axis and perpendicular line across fibular tip, the coefficient variations were very high, which indicated that the locations of the bone tunnels were scattered over a large area in both groups. Conclusions: Arthroscopic and open procedures achieved similar results for calcaneus bone tunnel making of the CFL. However, large variations were observed in both groups. Level of Evidence: Level III, retrospective cohort study.
