Triple osteotomy of first ray for severe hallux valgus surgery: Long-term follow-up.
Article in Acta orthopaedica et traumatologica turcica, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
This study aimed to present a retrospective case series of the long-term results of severe hallux valgus treated with triple osteotomy of the first ray. Patients with severe hallux valgus treated with a basal medial opening wedge, distal chevron, and Akin osteotomy from 2008 to 2012 were identified from the electronic medical records. Radiological outcomes such as pre- and postoperative hallux valgus angle, intermetatarsal angle, and distal metatarsal articular angle) were collected. Patients were contacted to complete foot and ankle outcome score (FAOS). Nineteen patients underwent 20 triple osteotomies of the first ray. Clinical data and FAOS were collected at a median follow-up of 10.2 years. There was a significant improvement in hallux valgus angle, intermetatarsal angle, and distal metatarsal articular angle from pre- to postoperatively, both at initial and final radiographic follow-up (P < .0001). Patient satisfaction was high, with median FAOS of 94.5 (symptoms), 97 (function/activities of daily living), 100 (function/sport and recreation), 85 (foot and ankle-related quality of life), and 100 (pain). Triple first-ray osteotomy is a successful mode of treatment for severe hallux valgus, with high levels of patient satisfaction and excellent improvement in radiological parameters measured over long-term follow-up.
