Functional outcomes of tibial medullary cancellous bone graft combined with allograft in medial open-wedge high tibial osteotomy: A retrospective cohort study.

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
backgroundWe evaluated the long-term outcomes of bone autograft versus tibial medullary cancellous bone graft combined with allograft as therapeutic interventions for medial compartment osteoarthritis associated with genu varum deformity.
methodsThis retrospective cohort study included patients with knee osteoarthritis who underwent medial open-wedge high tibial osteotomy (MOWHTO), receiving either an autogenous bone graft or a tibial medullary cancellous bone graft combined with an allograft. Clinical status was assessed using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC). Radiological parameters, including the hip-knee-ankle angle (HKA), medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA), and femorotibial angle (FTA), were measured preoperatively and at the 6-month follow-up.
resultsIn total, 157 patients were included: 81 in Group A (autograft) and 76 in Group B (tibial medullary cancellous bone graft combined with allograft). No significant differences were observed between the groups in postoperative HKA, MPTA, and FTA values. However, VAS and WOMAC scores were significantly lower in the combined graft group.
conclusionThe use of a combined tibial medullary cancellous bone graft with allograft in MOWHTO is associated with improved functional outcomes at the 6-month follow-up, as evidenced by statistically significantly reduced VAS and WOMAC scores.
