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

Numerical simulations contribute to the understanding of patellofemoral diseases. Whereas cadaveric studies are limited with respect to reproducibility of results, the impact of different operative approaches can be systematically evaluated based on mathematical models. The objective of this study was to introduce a musculoskeletal model which is capable of describing the dynamic interactions within the patellofemoral joint. It contains major bony and soft tissue structures of the right leg including the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL). Two operative approaches were considered based on the model to illustrate the effect on patellofemoral biomechanics during active knee flexion: On the one hand the effect of femoral insertion during MPFL reconstruction on medial soft tissue tension, and on the other hand the difference in patella kinematics before and after total knee arthroplasty. Finally, the potential of musculoskeletal models is discussed.
