Impact of lumbar spine pathology on asymmetrical hallux valgus in a population-based cohort study.

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 aims to investigate the influence of lumbar spine disorders on the development of asymmetric hallux valgus (HV). Data from the fifth survey of the Osteoarthritis/Osteoporosis Against Disability (ROAD) study, a nationwide prospective study in Japan, were analyzed. HV severity was categorized into 4 grades based on the radiographic HV angle, and asymmetric HV was defined as having at least one HV on either side, with a difference of two or more severity grades between the left and right. Controls were matched from both the Normal group (without HV on both sides) and the Symmetric group (HV on at least one side with a difference of one or less severity grades). Univariate analysis assessed lumbar conditions, and multinomial logistic regression analysis explored the association between lumbar spine disorders and asymmetric HV. Among 1997 participants, 27 had asymmetric HV. Univariate analysis revealed a higher incidence of L5 spondylolisthesis and scoliosis in the Asymmetric group. Multinomial logistic regression analysis revealed that scoliosis independently increased the likelihood of asymmetrical HV (Odds ratio [OR] = 3.586, 95%Confidence interval [CI] 1.111-11.582), but showed no significant impact on symmetrical HV (OR 0.910, 95% CI 0.355-2.334). Asymmetric HV is rare but may be associated with lumbar spine disorders, particularly scoliosis.
