Hallux valgus: Advances in weightbearing CT imaging and three-dimensional assessment of first ray deformity.
Review in Skeletal radiology, 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
Hallux valgus (HV) is a complex triplanar deformity of the first ray that has traditionally been evaluated using weightbearing radiographs. However, these two-dimensional techniques are limited in their ability to assess the rotational and multiplanar components of the deformity. Weightbearing computed tomography (WBCT) now enables a three-dimensional assessment of the foot under physiological load, providing new insights into first ray pathology. Recent WBCT-based studies have shown that HV is part of a global malalignment of the first ray, characterized by first metatarsal pronation, medial column instability, and progressive sesamoid subluxation. These findings have refined the understanding of pathomechanical mechanisms and have influenced surgical decision-making, particularly regarding the correction of rotational deformities and instability of the tarsometatarsal joint. Emerging semi-automated tools and artificial intelligence-based methods further improve the reproducibility and efficiency of WBCT analysis. New quantitative techniques such as distance mapping and coverage mapping allow detailed assessment of articular relationships. Overall, WBCT represents a paradigm shift toward a more accurate, standardized, and comprehensive evaluation of HV.
