1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Eliminating necrotic and infected tissues is crucial for limb salvage in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI). However, extensive lesions that involve the midfoot frequently result in transtibial amputation, restricting ambulation and independent life. The Modified Pirogoff amputation, which includes a 90° rotation of the calcaneus and fixation with the tibia, has good functional outcomes in trauma cases. Here, we report two patients with CLTI successfully managed by a combination of revascularization and modified Pirogoff amputation, resulting in preserved ambulation without a prosthesis. Modified Pirogoff amputation may be a good alternative in revascularized CLTI with extensive tissue loss of the midfoot.
