Novel Use of RegJointTM in the Management Talocalcaneal Coalition Interpositional Arthroplasty.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
RegJoint™ is a bioresorbable porous polylactide scaffold that has previously been used as an interposition device in small joint arthritis of the hand and great toe. The preformed design of RegJoint™ offers the technical advantages over autologous grafts by maintaining a consistent joint space volume during healing. This case represents the first documented use of a RegJoint™ implant as an interposition arthroplasty in the treatment of symptomatic talocalcaneal coalition. There were no complications, and the patient was able to return to pain-free light exercise after three months, with a return to full contact sports after six months. The device offers potential advantages, such as precise sizing and a reduction in donor-site morbidity. The mid-term outcome in our patient suggests that this technique might provide, at the very least, comparable pain relief and functional recovery to established methods.
