Resection of Calcaneonavicular and Talocalcaneal Coalitions With Surgical Correction of the Hindfoot Valgus Deformity in One Step.

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
Background: Calcaneonavicular (CNC) and talocalcaneal (TCC) coalitions are the most common cause of rigid flatfoot in children. After resection, correction of the most frequent valgus-hindfoot deformity usually requires a second-step surgery. We report results of a retrospective study of patients treated with a one-step correction. Methods: Between 2008 and 2019, data were collected on 26 patients (19 male, 7 female) affected by CNC (n = 18) and TCC (n = 13), all with rigid symptomatic flatfeet. Average age at surgery was 12.5 ± 1.1 (SD) years (range, 9.8-15.2). All patients (26/26) underwent resection, 20 of 26 underwent at the same time subtalar extraarticular screw arthroereisis (SESA) for correction of residual hindfoot valgus deformity. Pre- and postoperative talocalcaneal angle according to Costa Bartani and Talar inclination angle in weightbearing were measured. Twenty-five of 26 patients had postoperative American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot score. Results: Pre- and postoperative talocalcaneal average angle for CNC was respectively 141.5 ± 7.7 degrees and 130.5 ± 5.2 degrees ( Conclusion: Symptomatic rigid flatfeet affected by CNC and TCC treated with coalition resection and minimally invasive subtalar arthroereisis (SESA) for residual hindfoot valgus correction in one step in adolescent age achieved good to excellent results in all cases. Further surgery to correct malalignment was avoided. Level of Evidence: Level IV, retrospective study.
