GAIT ASSESSMENT IN ANKLE FRACTURES WITH SYNDESMOSIS LESIONS UNDERGOING SURGERY.
Article in Acta ortopedica brasileira, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
introductionThe three-dimensional evaluation of patients in the gait laboratory is a diagnostic method that is gaining ground in various orthopedic pathologies and, in the case of ankle fractures, can more accurately detail the degree of joint limitation.
objectiveTo present the importance of laboratory gait studies in the postoperative period of ankle fractures associated with syndesmosis ligament injuries, increasing the arsenal for assessing whether the surgical approach and outcome were satisfactory.
methodsCase series of 13 patients who underwent surgical treatment for ankle fractures associated with syndesmosis injuries, evaluated postoperatively in the gait clinic using the BTS GAITLAB hardware program. Kinetic and kinematic data using a three-dimensional movement system were collected and analyzed.
resultsAlterations were found in the Temporal and Spatial Parameters and in the Statistical Angles of the lower limb joints, comparing the operated limb with the non-operated limb.
conclusionThe results of the study suggest that, despite subtle variations between the limbs assessed, the program was able to identify these differences in a significant way, demonstrating that gait assessments bring great benefits in understanding biomechanical limitations, and make more effective and individualized rehabilitation protocols possible.
