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
High tibial osteotomy is a reliable procedure for the correction of knee varus deformity. An opening-wedge high tibial osteotomy (OW-HTO) is the most popular technique. The results of the bone defect after opening the wedge needed special treatment to ensure bone healing. This study aims to evaluate the use of bovine-derived hydroxyapatite graft for defect filling after OW-HTO. Methods: A retrospective study was performed on all patients who received OW-HTO at Prof. Dr R. Soeharso Orthopaedic Hospital from November 2019 to December 2022. A total of 21 patients (24 knees) were included in this study. Clinical dan radiological evaluation was performed on all patients preoperative and postoperatively. The mean of the follow-up period was 12.6 months with a minimum of 4 months follow-up. Results: Primary medial uni-compartment knee osteoarthritis was the most common diagnosis, with 17 of 24 cases (70.8%). Mechanical axis deviation was changed from 31 mm medial deviation (range: 8-52 mm) to 0.45 mm medial deviation (range: 13 - (-8) mm). The anatomic tibiofemoral angle was corrected from a preoperative mean of 4.7 Conclusions: Bovine-derived hydroxyapatite graft is a safe and effective material for bone defect filling in OW-HTO procedures with a high bone union rate.
