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
Injuries of the ankle joint show lesions of the lateral ligamentous apparatus with an incidence of 1 in 1000 cases. With a range of 0.3-0.7 in 1000 cases, injuries of the medial ligamentous apparatus occur more frequently than previously thought and are often overlooked. Correct imaging diagnostics of the ankle ligaments are mandatory for the prognosis and treatment planning. In cases of clinically strong suspicion of ligamentous injury or osteochondral lesions of the ankle joint, after primary radiographic evaluation magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is primarily recommended for a more precise assessment. Additionally, the sensitivity for assessment of the ligaments with ultrasonography is good (91% vs. 97% with MRI) but its specificity is inferior compared to MRI (63% vs. 93% with MRI). Supination trauma is the most common ankle injury and attention should be paid to the anterior tibiofibular ligament and calcaneofibular ligament. In approximately 50%, injuries to the superficial layer of the medial collateral ligament complex are associated with lesions of the posterior tibiotalar ligament.
