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

backgroundThere have been no reports on arthroereisis screw insertion into the talus in patients with flexible flatfoot. We aimed to conduct a clinical and radiological assessment in patients with symptomatic pes planovalgus deformity treated with a talar screw.

methodsThis study involved a prospective assessment of 27 patients treated surgically for symptomatic flexible flatfoot deformity in the period 2021-2022. The following parameters were assessed in this study: Meary's angle, the Costa-Bartani angle, the calcaneal pitch angle, surgery duration, the length of hospital stay, patient satisfaction, patients' retrospective willingness to consent to the treatment they received, postoperative complications, and the use of analgesics.

resultsThe mean follow-up period was 14.76 months. Meary's angle decreased from 18.63° before surgery to 9.39° at follow-up (

conclusionSpherus screw arthroereisis helps improve radiological parameters in patients with flexible flatfoot. We observed good clinical outcomes after treatment with a talar screw, with a majority of patients reporting moderate-to-high levels of satisfaction with treatment. Both short- and medium-term treatment outcomes of pes planovalgus treatment with the use of Spherus screw are good.
