Comparison of the efficacy of tibial transverse transfer and periosteal distraction techniques in the treatment of diabetic foot refractory ulcers.
Article in Frontiers in surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Objective: To investigate the efficacy of comparing tibia transverse transport (TTT) and periosteal distraction in treating diabetic foot ulcers. Methods: A retrospective analysis of 19 patients with diabetic foot ulcers treated with both procedures between February 2020 and November 2022, 8 of whom were treated with the tibial transverse transfer technique (transfer group) and 11 with the osteochondral distraction technique (distraction group), was performed to compare and analyze the clinical efficacy of the two methods. Results: All wounds were healed in both groups, and the healing time ranged from 15 to 41days with a mean of 28d. The limb preservation rate was 100%. The operative time, intraoperative bleeding, and pain score in the operative area were significantly less in the distraction group than in the removal group, with statistically significant differences ( Conclusions: The Periosteal distraction technique can significantly promote the healing of diabetic foot ulcers. It has the same efficacy as TTT in promoting the healing of diabetic foot ulcer wounds and improving the peripheral circulation of affected limbs. In addition, the periosteal distraction technique has the advantages of small trauma, simple operation, few complications, and convenient nursing care.
