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

Background: Modified oblique Keller capsular interposition arthroplasty (MOKCIA) is a treatment for hallux rigidus that has been shown to have similar long-term outcomes compared with metatarsophalangeal (MTP) arthrodesis. The purpose of this study was to evaluate differences in the level of sport and other activity following MOKCIA or first MTP arthrodesis. Methods: From 2005 to 2020, 58 MOKCIA and 112 arthrodesis patients were identified. Patients completed a sports-specific questionnaire (SSQ) along with the visual analog scale (VAS) pain/satisfaction, Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM), and Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) instruments, which yielded 14 MOKCIA and 15 arthrodesis subjects. Results: At an average 13 years' follow-up, the MOKCIA group participated in a mean of 3.4 ± 1.7 sport activities preoperatively and 3.4 ± 1.9 postoperatively, whereas arthrodesis patients participated in 3.5 ± 1.7 activities preoperatively and 2.9 ± 1.4 postoperatively ( Conclusion: We found that MOKCIA compared similarly with MTP arthrodesis in sports physical function at long-term follow-up. These results must be interpreted in light of the very low follow-up and retrospective recall of preoperative activities. Level of Evidence: Level III, retrospective cohort study.
