Hallux Valgus Management: An Update Based on National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) Guidelines.
Review 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
Hallux valgus, commonly known as a bunion, is a prevalent condition involving lateral deviation of the hallux (big toe). This may result in pain and functional impairment. Conservative methods such as orthoses, physiotherapy, and analgesia are first-line treatment. When conservative treatment fails, surgical intervention may be necessary, and traditionally, the gold standard of care has involved surgical intervention utilizing an open approach. However, recent National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidelines now recognizes the use of minimally invasive percutaneous surgical techniques as a viable option for Hallux correction alongside traditional open procedures. Open and minimally invasive techniques appear equivocal in their safety profiles with similar patient-reported outcome measures.
