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

Objective: To compare the difference in forefoot width between minimally invasive extra-articular osteotomy via small incision and traditional Chevron osteotomy in the treatment of hallux valgus. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 45 patients with hallux valgus between April 2019 and July 2022. Among them, 22 cases underwent minimally invasive extra-articular osteotomy via small incision (minimally invasive group), and 23 cases underwent traditional Chevron osteotomy (traditional group). There was no significant difference in the baseline data between the two groups ( Results: One case of skin injury occurred during operation in the minimally invasive group, while 3 cases of poor wound healing occurred after operation in the traditional group. None of the patients experienced infections, nerve injuries, or other complications. All patients were followed up 12-31 months (mean, 22.5 months). The osteotomy healed in the two groups and no significant difference in healing time between the two groups was found ( Conclusion: The minimally invasive extra-articular osteotomy via small incision for hallux valgus, despite not removing the medial osteophyte of the first metatarsal, can still effectively improve the forefoot width and osteophyte width. While correcting the IMA and HVA, it can more effectively restore the DMAA, resulting in better AOFAS scores.
