Anatomical Description of the Structures That Cause Tibialis Posterior Tendon Dysfunction.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Tibialis posterior tendon (TPT) dysfunction is defined as a clinical pathology of the foot. It occurs as a sudden and progressive loss of strength due to TPT tendinopathy as a result of causes such as vascular and acute trauma or overuse. This retrospective study aimed to identify the anatomical aspects that can cause TPT dysfunction. The association between the control group and the patient group with stage 1 TPT dysfunction was assessed. The variables evaluated for this purpose were medial malleolus type, presence and type of accessory navicular tubercle, TPT width (TPTW), TPT thickness (TPTT), retromalleolar groove width (RGW), retromalleolar groove depth (RGD), retromalleolar groove angle (RGA), anterior posterior malleolar length (APML), posterior malleolar length (PML), and total posterior malleolar length (TPML). The RGA and TPML differences between the control and patient groups were determined to be statistically significant. In our opinion, identifying the risk factors for TPT dysfunction will aid in planning the therapeutic procedure.
