Bilateral Inverted V-shaped High Tibial Osteotomy: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The article describes the case of a young patient with bilateral genu varum deformity, limiting her mobility. The therapeutic decision was a staged reverse V-shaped tibial osteotomy on both knees at a six-month interval. The surgery faced infectious complications on the left side, requiring additional treatment. Despite this, the patient achieved successful correction, with wound healing and bone consolidation. Preoperative planning was crucial, determining specific correction angles for each knee. The reverse V-shaped osteotomy demonstrated satisfactory functional outcomes compared to other techniques. The conclusion emphasizes the effectiveness of reverse V-shaped high tibial osteotomy (HTO) in addressing varus tibial deformities, providing an alternative before considering total knee arthroplasty. Multicenter studies and long-term evaluations are recommended to refine this surgical procedure.
