Minimally Invasive Forefoot Surgeries Using the Shannon Burr: A Comprehensive Review.
Review in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Since the early 2000s, minimally invasive forefoot surgery (MIS), particularly hallux valgus correction, has significantly advanced with the introduction of the Shannon burr. However, despite numerous relevant studies being published, no comprehensive review articles have summarized MIS for various forefoot conditions. Therefore, in this comprehensive review, we examined the relevant studies about the application of MIS (excluding arthroscopy and endoscopy) for various forefoot conditions. Additionally, we discuss the essential considerations for achieving favorable surgical outcomes and preventing complications associated with each technique. We analyzed the characteristics of each surgical procedure and identified areas for future focus. Effective surgical treatment not only requires MIS, but also the appropriate selection of patients based on suitable indications and executing procedures within the surgeon's capabilities. We hope that this review will help readers to enhance their expertise in this field.
