Efficacy of Total Tibialis Anterior Tendon Transfer using Button Anchor in Management of Residual Dynamic Supination in Congenital Talipes Equino Varus.
Article in Malaysian orthopaedic journal, 2026. 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
Introduction: Congenital talipes equino-varus (CTEV) is amongst one of the most common paediatric foot deformities. Ponseti's method is the standard way of treatment, however, some patients are left with residual or partially corrected deformities. Dynamic supination is one amongst them, where the foot supinates in swing phase of the gait cycle. It is due to a strong tibialis anterior and its weak antagonist. Materials and methods: We undertook a prospective interventional study in thirty patients of CTEV with residual dynamic supination deformity and treated them with tibialis anterior tendon transfer (TATT) using a button anchor. Minimum follow-up was six months after the surgery. Functional, subjective and objective evaluation was done using foot posture index (FPI), disease specific instrument (DSI) for clubfoot, clinician satisfaction grading and videotaped functional gait analysis. Statistical analysis was done using paired 't' test and calculating p values. Results: We achieved good to excellent results in 93.3% of our patients and fair in 6.66%. None of our patients had poor results. Mean FPI improved from -1.93 to +0.3, DSI values also showed a significant reduction from 18.17 +/- 1.09 to 13.37 +/- 1.54 after surgery. A total of 90% had satisfactory gait post-surgery at 6 months follow-up. Conclusion: Tibialis anterior tendon transfer using a button anchor is effective in treatment of residual dynamic supination deformity.
