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
In patients requiring surgical correction of ipsilateral valgus knee and rigid pes planovalgus deformities, the optimal operative sequence is controversial. Growing evidence suggests these 2 deformities are related in etiology and interrelated in disease course. We present the case of a 72-year-old female with concomitant valgus knee and rigid pes planovalgus deformities successfully treated with total knee arthroplasty followed by triple arthrodesis and Achilles lengthening. Surgical correction of these deformities must be carefully planned between the operating surgeons to avoid over- or under-correction of alignment that could further impact gait. In contrast with the limited available literature, the authors recommend correction at the knee first and the foot and ankle second. Further prospective studies are needed to elucidate the best operative sequence in these patients.
