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

Accurate measurement of hallux valgus angle (HVA) and intermetatarsal angle (IMA) is essential for diagnosing hallux valgus and determining appropriate treatment strategies. Traditional manual measurement methods, while standardized, are time-consuming, labor-intensive, and subject to evaluator bias. Recent advancements in deep learning have been applied to hallux valgus angle estimation, but the development of effective algorithms requires large, well-annotated datasets. Existing X-ray datasets are typically limited to cropped foot regions images, and only one dataset containing very few samples is publicly available. To address these challenges, we introduce HVAngleEst, the first large-scale, open-access dataset specifically designed for hallux valgus angle estimation. HVAngleEst comprises 1,382 X-ray images from 1,150 patients and includes comprehensive annotations, such as foot localization, hallux valgus angles, and line segments for each phalanx. This dataset enables fully automated, end-to-end hallux valgus angle estimation, reducing manual labor and eliminating evaluator bias.
