Extracorporeal shockwave therapy as a key component of interdisciplinary wound management in diabetic foot syndrome : A case report.
Article in Wiener medizinische Wochenschrift (1946), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundA 57-year-old male patient presented with the first manifestation of severe type 2 diabetes mellitus in the setting of diabetic foot syndrome complicated by osteomyelitis.
methodsThe patient was treated conservatively within a multimodal interdisciplinary approach. In addition, focused extracorporeal shockwave therapy (fESWT) was performed according to International Society for Medical Shockwave Treatment (ISMST)-oriented principles.
resultsAfter five sessions of fESWT, local wound management resulted in extraction of a relevant bony sequestrum. Following sequestrum removal, a large wound cavity remained in the region of the right first toe (digitus I pedis), corresponding approximately to the size of an entire phalanx. Remarkably, within only 4 days, rapid and substantial granulation of the deep wound cavity was observed.
conclusionThe present case supports the hypothesis that focused ESWT may represent a clinically relevant adjunctive treatment option in selected patients with diabetic foot syndrome and complicated wound healing disorders. At the same time, it highlights the need for prospective randomized controlled trials.
