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

Medial cuneiform fracture-dislocations are rare and typically occur in the setting of high-energy midfoot trauma. We report the case of a 30-year-old woman who sustained an open dorsomedial fracture-dislocation of the medial cuneiform with concomitant tibialis anterior tendon avulsion after a 6-m fall. She underwent emergent irrigation and debridement, open reduction, and internal fixation of the midfoot, and primary repair of the tibialis anterior tendon. Intraoperatively, a longitudinal split tear with avulsion from the medial cuneiform insertion was identified and repaired through a bone tunnel using nonabsorbable sutures. At 6-month follow-up, radiographs demonstrated maintained reduction without hardware failure or recurrent instability. The patient reported minimal pain, had no evidence of infection, and was ambulating independently. This is the first reported open dorsomedial fracture-dislocation of the medial cuneiform with acute tibialis anterior tendon avulsion.
