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
Background: To investigate the effects of different hinge positions in the sagittal and axial planes on distal tibial rotation (DTR) during medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy (MOWHTO) with three-dimensional tibial models. Methods: Preoperative CT data from 30 knee joints in 30 patients who underwent surgery for varus malalignment of knee were included. 1 standard hinge position (0°), 6 axial planes (±5°, ±10°, ±15°), and 6 sagittal planes (±5°, ±10°, ±15°) hinge positions were defined and virtual uniplanar osteotomy was performed. The correction angle of each model was generated using Fujisawa's point. Participants' baseline characteristics, radiologic parameters and DTR were measured. One-Way Repeated Measures ANOVA and single factor linear regression analysis were used to analyze the association between tibial rotation and hinge position in the sagittal and axial planes. Results: We found a clear linear correlation between changes in hinge position in the sagittal plane and DTR. The changes in DTR were the smallest when the hinge position was at 5°, where internal or external rotation of the DTR may occur. When the front aspect of hinge axis rotated distally, DTR tended towards internal. Meanwhile, when the front aspect of hinge axis rotated proximally, DTR tended towards external. There were no correlations with every hinge axis position in the axial plane. Conclusions: It is sagittal but not axial hinge axis affects DTR in uniplanar MOWHTO with three-dimensional tibial models. In the sagittal plane, every change in hinge position was significantly linearly correlated with DTR. However, no linear correlations were observed between every hinge position change in the axial plane.
