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
Objective: To summarize the clinical experiences of personalized reconstruction using Ilizarov technique for the treatment of 7 patients with post-traumatic calcaneal osteomyelitis and deformity. Methods: Between January 2014 and January 2022, 7 patients with post-traumatic calcaneal osteomyelitis and deformity were treated. All patients were male, with a mean age of 45.4 years (range, 27-61 years). The duration of osteomyelitis ranged from 2 to 72 months (median, 6 months). Based on the extent of bone defect, deformity characteristics, and stability requirements of the hindfoot, personalized reconstructive strategies were designed using the Ilizarov technique. Of the 7 patients, 6 underwent Results: All patients completed bone transport and successfully removed the external fixator. And all patients experienced 1-3 needle infections, which improved after symptomatic treatment. All incisions healed by first intention. All patients were followed up 6-60 months (mean, 36.5 months). In 6 patients who underwent Conclusion: Multi-plane adjustment, flexibly combining straight, oblique, and curved planes with bone transport techniques, provide a comprehensive solution for the treatment of post-traumatic calcaneal osteomyelitis and deformity. These techniques offer advantages such as effective infection control, minimal trauma, adequate new bone formation, and gradual deformity correction, making them a valuable approach for calcaneal reconstruction.
