Reconstructive Surgery for Foot Ectrodactyly in an Adolescent Patient: A Case Report.
Article in Journal of orthopaedic case reports, 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: Foot ectrodactyly is a rare congenital malformation characterized by the absence of the central rays resulting in a cleft foot deformity that may impair shoe wear, function, and cosmesis. Case Report: We report an 18-year-old Filipino female with bilateral isolated foot ectrodactyly who presented with progressive pain during ambulation and difficulty wearing conventional footwear. Radiographs demonstrated the absence and hypoplasia of the second and third rays. A limb-preserving reconstructive procedure was performed on the symptomatic right foot, consisting of proximal first metatarsal closing wedge osteotomy, hallux interphalangeal joint arthrodesis, and soft-tissue web-space reconstruction. Conclusion: At 6 months postoperatively, the patient achieved pain relief, improved forefoot alignment, and the ability to wear standard shoes and ambulate normally. This case highlights the role of reconstructive surgery in skeletally mature patients with foot ectrodactyly.
