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
backgroundHallux valgus is a deformity characterized by lateral deviation of the big toe and medial deviation of the first metatarsal, causing difficulty in walking and requiring various treatments. Despite its multifactorial etiology, the role of the tibialis anterior tendon in hallux valgus and its variations in the morphology of tibialis anterior tendon distal insertion sites have not been fully explored. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of such variations on hallux valgus using magnetic resonance imaging.
methodsThis was a retrospective study and included 115 individuals aged 18 years and older who underwent foot radiographs and MRI. The participants were divided into a hallux valgus group of 53 patients and a control group of 62 people based on radiographic measurements. Tibialis anterior tendon distal attachment was classified into five types according to the attachment morphology. Statistical analyses were performed to evaluate the relationship between the tibialis anterior tendon types and hallux valgus severity.
resultsAmong the participants, patients who underwent foot radiography and MRI due to any medical indication 70.4% were female, with a mean age of 43.83 ± 15.25 years. In terms of tibialis anterior tendon distal attachment, the most common type was Type 5 (40.9%), followed by Type 2 (34.8%). Type 4 was not observed in any case. In all participants, the mean hallux valgus angle was 20.63 ± 8.42
conclusionsThis study revealed a significant association between hallux valgus and Type 5 tibialis anterior tendon distal attachment, suggesting that tibialis anterior tendon morphology influences hallux valgus severity. The findings underscore the importance of considering variations in tibialis anterior tendon distal attachment sites in the etiopathogenesis and treatment planning of hallux valgus.
