1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

New knowledge about the pathophysiology and biomechanics of the patellofemoral joint (PFJ) has led to a better understanding and new treatment options. To recognise the main pathology is the most important and difficult part. This article describes the basic principles of biomechanics (static, passive and active factors) and their influence on the PFJ. Patients are classified into three groups (pain, instability and arthritis). This is achieved by a clinical evaluation and standard X-rays. The instability group is analysed additionally with MRI. The aim of this evaluation is to analyse the biomechanical cause of the instability. Based on a pathophysiological concept a new therapeutic algorithm is introduced.
