Arthroscopic Sesamoidectomy and Plantar Metatarsal Head Bone Shaving in Management of First Metatarsal Head Metatarsalgia After First Metatarsophalangeal Fusion.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
First metatarsophalangeal arthrodesis has been used to treat end-stage arthritis of the great toe (e.g., gout, post-traumatic, infection), severe hallux valgus deformity, hallux valgus caused by neuromuscular disorders, rheumatoid forefoot deformity, primary hallux varus, and rigid plantarflexion deformities, as well as a salvage procedure for failed previous operation of the great toe. As with any arthrodesis procedure, proper positioning of the hallux in first metatarsophalangeal arthrodesis is of utmost importance for good clinical outcome. The chief problem tends to be sagittal alignment. In case of the significant dorsiflexion malunion of the fusion site with excessive plantar pressure of the first metatarsophalangeal joint and abutment of the hallux to the shoebox, corrective osteotomy is indicated. If there is isolated excessive plantar pressure of the first metatarsophalangeal joint without hallux problem, arthroscopic sesamoidectomy and bone shaving of the plantar side of the first metatarsal head is another surgical option. The purpose of this technical note is to describe the details of arthroscopic sesamoidectomy and bone shaving of the plantar side of the first metatarsal head.
