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

Aim and background: The aim of this study is to evaluate the outcomes of acute correction of large varus and valgus deformities with simultaneous distal femoral and tibial osteotomies. Acute correction of large coronal plane deformities is complex and if done incorrectly, can lead to problems like non-union, soft tissue problems, and joint line obliquity. Materials and methods: Radiographic, clinical, and patient-reported outcomes are analysed through a retrospective series of 21 extremities in 18 consecutive patients with coexisting femoral and tibial deformities who underwent concurrent distal femoral and proximal tibial osteotomies with acute coronal plane correction and internal fixation. Results: The mean mechanical axis deviation (MAD) correction was 56 mm for varus deformities ( Conclusion: Acute correction of large coronal plane deformities can be accurately and safely performed with simultaneous distal femoral and proximal tibial osteotomies with internal fixation. Clinical significance: This study highlights a safe method to accurately correct large coronal plane deformities in the lower extremity. How to cite this article: Wallace SJ, Jaime MK, Fragomen AT,
