Frontal Tendon Lengthening Plasty for Treatment of Structural Patella Baja.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
Patella baja is a severe complication seen after trauma, prolonged immobilization and surgery. Several surgical methods have been described to proximalize the patella without a change in the patella tendon length. Yet, patella tendon shortening and thickening can be regarded as the hallmark pathology. As such, we describe a technique for the lengthening of the patellar tendon to pathoconformly address underlying patella baja. The technique is reproducible and gives the possibility of an early postoperative mobilization to prevent re-baja-a typical complication after patella baja surgery.
