Modified Endoscopic Distal Soft Tissue Procedure (mEDSTP) and Arthroscopic Lapidus Arthrodesis for Correction of Severe Hallux Valgus.

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
Hallux valgus is one of the most common forefoot deformities faced by foot and ankle surgeons. Symptomatic deformity usually needs surgical correction. Endoscopic techniques of hallux valgus correction have been reported that are based on the same principle of the classic distal soft tissue procedure. Recently, the technique has been modified to include reconstruction of the medial metatarsosesamoid ligament and augmentation of the intermetatarsal ligament. In severe deformity or the presence of hypermobility or painful degeneration of the first tarsometatarsal joint, Lapidus arthrodesis of the joint is indicated. Arthroscopic Lapidus arthrodesis has been reported to reduce the complications associated with open procedure, including first metatarsal shortening, metatarsal elevatus, and nonunion. In this technical note, the technical details of a combined modified endoscopic distal soft tissue procedure and arthroscopic Lapidus arthrodesis is described. This is a minimally invasive approach for correction of severe hallux valgus deformity, especially that associated with ligamentous laxity.
