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

The objective of this paper is to carry out a review of the literature on the contemporary situation of total ankle replacement (TAR) in people with hemophilia (PWH). A search was performed in PubMed on December 29, 2024, utilizing the keywords "hemophilia" and "total ankle replacement." To date solely 8 papers (136 TARs) in 103 PWH have been reported. All published series showed improvement in preoperative pain and function. However, the complication rate was 8.8% (intra-operative fractures of the medial malleolus, delayed wound healings, hematomas). Additional surgery is required in 5.1% of the TARs implanted (ankle arthrolysis due to painful arthrofibrosis, major surgeries, revision surgeries). The estimated 10-year survival free of any TAR removal or ankle fusion (AF) is 92.2%. Regarding the controversy AF or TAR in PWH, a recent systematic review and meta-analysis have found similar clinical results and rates of adverse events between TAR and AF in PWH.
