Patient-reported outcome measures in studies on hallux valgus surgery: what should be assessed.
Synthesis in Archives of orthopaedic and trauma surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
introductionIn recent years, there has been an increasing demand for patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) to assess the outcome following orthopedic surgery. But, we are lacking a standard set of PROMs to assess the outcome of hallux valgus surgery. The aim of this study was to analyze the chosen patient rated outcome scores used in studies reporting on hallux valgus surgery. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe study was based on a previously published living systematic review. Included were prospective, comparative studies of different surgical procedures or the same procedure for different degrees of deformity. Four common databases were searched for the last decade. Study selection, data extraction, and risk of bias assessment were made by two independent reviewers. Data assessed were the individual PROMs used to assess the outcome of hallux valgus surgery.
results46 studies (30 RCTs and 16 non-randomized prospective studies) met the inclusion criteria. The most commonly used clinical outcome measures were the AOFAS (55%) and the VAS (30%). No differences were found between frequency of the individual scores per the level of evidence or the type of osteotomy.
conclusionBased on a systematic literature review, the AOFAS and VAS are the most frequently used outcome tools in studies assessing the outcome following hallux valgus surgery. Based on the literature available, the MOXFQ is a more valid alternative. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level I; systematic review of prospective comparative (level II) and randomized controlled trials (level I).
