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

Objective: To retrospectively evaluate the therapeutic effects of 3D-printed ankle-foot orthoses in children with spastic cerebral palsy (SPC). Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study at Guigang People's Hospital, reviewing medical records of children diagnosed with SPC between January 2022 and June 2024. A total of 124 patients who met the inclusion criteria were divided into two groups based on the orthotic device they received: the treatment group ( Results: Baseline data showed no significant differences between the two groups ( Conclusion: This retrospective study suggests that 3D-printed ankle-foot orthoses may offer improved comfort, durability, and functional benefits in gait performance among children with SPC compared to conventional orthoses.
