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

Minimally invasive procedures for pes planovalgus offer a safe alternative to open surgery and reduce postoperative morbidity significantly. The significantly lower risk of wound-healing complications and the markedly reduced need for analgesics are among the factors that favor minimally invasive techniques. Owing to the substantially lower complication rate while maintaining a high correction potential, percutaneous calcaneal displacement osteotomy can now be regarded as the gold standard. Depending on the individual pathophysiology, additional procedures are usually required in adult acquired flatfoot, which can also be performed using minimally invasive techniques. Besides the overview of percutaneous calcaneal osteotomy, this article also provides an overview of endoscopic FDL transfer and the percutaneous reverse Cotton osteotomy, surgical techniques that are frequently combined in the treatment of flexible flatfoot deformity.
