Total talar replacement for metastatic pulmonary adenocarcinoma of the talus: A case report.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Talar metastases from malignant tumors are rare and poorly documented. Treatment requires gradual relief of pain and preservation of function, with a choice between palliative measures and surgery. This case indicates that total talar replacement is an effective intervention for localized talar metastases and highlights the importance of early intervention. A 48-year-old man was diagnosed with a pathologic talar fracture due to talar metastases was observed after 8 years of chemotherapy following a diagnosis of lung adenocarcinoma. Despite radiotherapy, the patient's activities of daily living (ADLs) deteriorated due to pain on walking, prompting a request for surgical intervention. Total talar replacement was performed, allowing the patient to begin full weight-bearing ambulation 2 weeks post-operatively. Total talar replacement appears to be an effective treatment for localized talar metastases and should be performed as early as possible.
