Transverse Tibial Transport: Surgical Technique and Insights From First International Case Series.
Article in International wound journal, 2025. 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
Chronic limb ischemia (CLI) is a significant health issue, particularly among patients with diabetes who are at elevated risk of diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) due to peripheral neuropathy and ischemia. In Singapore, approximately one in six adults is affected by diabetes, with a lifetime risk of developing DFU ranging from 15% to 25%. This paper examines the indications, surgical techniques and postoperative protocols for transverse tibial transport (TTT), an innovative limb salvage procedure implemented in a general hospital in Singapore and presents our early experience with this technique. All six patients in our study successfully achieved limb salvage with complete wound healing, with a median healing time of 4 months. Four patients required additional wound debridement and skin coverage to facilitate healing. Importantly, none of the patients experienced pin site infections during the procedure or throughout the postoperative healing phase. Our study demonstrates favourable outcomes and underscores the clinical utility of TTT in augmenting the multimodal treatment of recalcitrant DFUs.
