Endoscopic Calcaneoplasty With Bony Debridement and Radiofrequency.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Haglund's deformity refers to the enlargement of the posterosuperior tuberosity of the calcaneus, which can cause debilitating posterior heel pain and swelling. Calcaneoplasty is indicated for the treatment of Haglund's deformity following a failure of conservative treatment. Endoscopic calcaneoplasty confers a few advantages over open surgery and has been growing in popularity as the preferred technique. This Technical Note presents an endoscopic calcaneoplasty technique with bone debridement followed by treatment with a Topaz radiofrequency device, with the patient in a supine position.
