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

Objective: To compare the effectiveness of Holosight robot-assisted percutaneous reduction and internal fixation versus reduction and internal fixation via sinus tarsi approach in treatment of calcaneal fractures. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 46 cases (46 feet) of closed intra-articular calcaneal fractures classified as Sanders type Ⅱ or Ⅲ, admitted between June 2022 and June 2025. Among them, 20 patients were treated with Holosight robot-assisted percutaneous reduction and internal fixation (RA group), and 26 with open reduction and internal fixation via sinus tarsi approach (control group). There was no significant difference between groups ( Results: Compared with the control group, the RA group had significantly less intraoperative blood loss, fewer fluoroscopy frequency, fewer screw (guide wire) adjustments, higher initial screw (guide wire) implantation success rate, and shorter operation time and hospital stay ( Conclusion: Compared with the operation via sinus tarsi approach, Holosight robot-assisted percutaneous reduction and internal fixation for calcaneal fractures demonstrates superior safety and effectiveness, as evidenced by shortened operation and hospital stay, reduced intraoperative blood loss and the fluoroscopy frequency, improved screw placement accuracy, enhanced postoperative functional recovery.
