1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesTo assess magnetic resonance image (MRI) findings in children and adolescents with atraumatic non-overload ankle pain and to identify potential anatomic risk factors.

methodsIn total, 310 MRIs of 6- to 20-year-old patients were evaluated regarding detectable ankle pathologies. A total of 147 patients (68 males; 79 females) suffered from atraumatic non-overload ankle pain. The findings were compared to a control group (163 patients: 89 males; 74 females), including patients with ankle trauma in the 4 weeks prior to MRI examination. A

resultsIn the group with atraumatic ankle pain, 95 patients (64.6%) showed at least one pathology. Anterolateral impingement of the upper ankle joint was found in 29 patients (19.7%). Its occurrence was significantly higher in atraumatic non-overload patients than in the control group (

conclusionsAnterolateral impingement of the upper ankle joint is frequently observed in children and adolescents suffering from atraumatic non-overload ankle pain, whereby a hindfoot valgus malposition seems to present an anatomic risk factor.
