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

Purpose: To investigate the clinical efficacy of modified kidner procedure combined with subtalar arthroereisis in the treatment of adolescent type II painful accessory navicular with flexible flatfoot. Methods: From January 2018 to January 2022, 25 adolescent patients (40 feet) with painful type II accessory navicular and flexible flatfoot admitted to our hospital were enrolled in the study, including 13 males (23 feet) and 12 females (17 feet). All patients underwent modified kidner procedure combined with subtalar joint arthrodesis. The Meary's Angle, the first metatarsal Angle of talus (APTMT), the second metatarsal Angle of talus, Pitch Angle, talus tilt Angle, talonavicular coverage Angle (TCA), talus calcaneal Angle (LTCA), and calcaneal Angle were measured on weight-bearing anteroposterior and lateral x-ray films before operation and at last follow-up. The American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) midfoot score and visual analogue scale (VAS) were used to evaluate the improvement of foot function and pain. Results: All patients were followed up for average 17.4 ± 2.6 months (12-24). The incisions of 25 patients healed by first intention. The weight-bearing anteroposterior and lateral x-ray films of the foot showed that the suture anchors did not pull out or break, and the foot arch did not collapse further. There was no screw withdrawal or secondary operation to remove the screw in all patients. At the last follow-up, the postoperative visual analogue scale (VAS) score of the affected foot was significantly lower than that before operation ( Conclusions: The modified kidner procedure combined with subtalar arthroereisis has a good clinical effect in the treatment of adolescent type II painful accessory navicular with flexible flatfoot, which can effectively improve the pain symptoms, improve the foot function and imaging manifestations, and correct the flatfoot deformity.
