[Charcot's osteoarthropathy : How to identify a superimposed osteomyelitis?]
Review in Radiologie (Heidelberg, Germany), 2025. 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
Charcot's osteoarthropathy is defined as an osteodestructive process characterized by peripheral neuropathy with lack of protective proprioception in which improper weight bearing leads to recurrent microtrauma, triggering of a proinflammatory process, pathological bone remodeling, joint instability, and subsequent joint destruction. The most common cause is diabetes which can lead to neuropathy over time. Magnetic resonance imaging is the most important imaging modality enabling subtle analysis of soft tissue and bony changes. Thus, it plays a key role in detection of early disease stages, assessment of disease activity during follow-up, and identification of superimposed infections and osteomyelitis. Soft tissue infections comprise cellulitis, phlegmons and abscesses. The ghost-sign is the most helpful diagnostic criterion for identification of osteomyelitis. The presence of a skin ulcer with surrounding soft tissue infection should give rise for a careful search for sinus tract and osseous involvement.
