Limb Preservation for Multiple Ray Osteomyelitis in Diabetic Forefoot Charcot: A Case Report.
Article in Case reports in orthopedics, 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
This case report describes a very rare presentation of multifocal diabetic foot osteomyelitis (DFO) involving multiple rays and associated with forefoot Charcot neuroarthropathy. Based on magnetic resonance imaging findings and subsequent histopathological examination, the osteomyelitis was confirmed to be confined to the second and third metatarsals, the proximal phalanges of the hallux and second toe, and the metatarsal head and proximal phalangeal base of the fourth ray. Treatment consisted of complete resection of all infected bone in accordance with the principles of internal pedal amputation. The defects created following second-ray metatarsectomy and proximal phalangectomy of the hallux were filled with antibiotic-impregnated bone cement. At the 1-year follow-up, following this limb-sparing procedure, the patient was pain-free, free of infection, and able to bear full weight.
