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

The goal of the modified medial open-wedge high tibial osteotomy is the combined correction of a double varus deformity (mechanical medial proximal tibia angle <84°, joint line convergence angle >2°) and an increased posterior tibial slope >12°. This goal can be achieved through a few modifications to the standard biplanar medial open-wedge high tibial osteotomy technique. These modifications include (1) positioning of the hinge anterolaterally and above the fibula, (2) removing a small anterior wedge, and (3) using Schanz screws to facilitate slope correction. Osteosynthesis is performed with a locking plate. Rehabilitation involves 6 weeks of partial weight-bearing and free range of motion.
