Three-dimensional anatomical characterization of the sustentaculum tali in asymptomatic adults: a computed tomography-based morphometric analysis.

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
Purpose: This study aimed to establish normative anatomical references for the sustentaculum tali and talar articular surface using three-dimensional CT imaging, and to develop clinically applicable diagnostic criteria for sustentaculum tali dislocation. Methods: We analyzed 104 normal calcanei (47 males/57 females; mean age 38.96 ± 12.97 years; 51 left/53 right feet) from January to August 2023. Three-dimensional calcaneal reconstructions were created using CT imaging data. Eight anatomical parameters were measured: sustentaculum tali dimensions (length/width/height), angular parameters (α: superior sustentaculum angle; β: inferior talar margin angle; γ: inclination angle between anterior articular surface projection and calcaneal plantar axis), and posterior talar space distance (L). Statistical comparisons were performed between genders and sides. Result: Morphometric analysis revealed the following anatomical parameters of the sustentaculum tali: length 36.93 ± 4.30 mm, width 14.65 ± 1.96 mm, and height 17.91 ± 2.34 mm. Angular measurements demonstrated Conclusion: This study establishes normative 3D-CT anatomical parameters of the sustentaculum tali in healthy individuals (
