Sonographic Assessment of Effectiveness of Ultrasound-guided Interventions for Soft-tissue Pain in Foot and Ankle.
Article in Journal of medical ultrasound. 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
Background: Ultrasound (US)-guided interventional procedures are used to relieve soft-tissue pain in the foot and ankle. We evaluated the utility of US (including Doppler and elastography) in the response assessment of patients undergoing interventional procedures for soft-tissue pain in the foot and ankle. We also compared the imaging parameters with clinical scoring systems (Visual Analog Scale [VAS] score [rest pain] and American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society [AOFAS] [function] scores). Methods: Consecutive patients with treatable soft-tissue conditions of the foot and ankle underwent US-guided interventional procedures. The patients were followed up at the 1 Results: Forty-one patients were screened, of which 24 underwent US-guided procedures for 31 conditions. Group I (tendinopathies/plantar fasciitis) ( Conclusion: US-guided fenestration was effective in treating tendinopathies, while steroid injections were helpful in bursitis/ganglion cysts. US parameters significantly improved and correlated with the clinical response.
