Gait Characteristics Associated With a Greater Increase in Medial Knee Cartilage T
Article in The American journal of sports medicine, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 58 papers, 3 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
backgroundOsteoarthritis of the medial tibiofemoral joint (MTFJ) is prevalent among patients undergoing anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). Magnetic resonance T STUDY
designControlled laboratory study.
methodsThirty-three patients undergoing ACLR underwent gait analysis before and 6 months and 1 year after ACLR and knee magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) before and 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years after ACLR. Twelve healthy controls underwent knee MRI and gait analysis at baseline and 1 year. Cartilage T
resultsA higher KFM and KFA before ACLR were related to greater increases in medial femoral condyle T CONCLUSION/CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The findings of this study revealed that a higher KFM, KFA, and vGRF during gait, especially at 6 months after ACLR, were associated with greater deterioration of MTFJ cartilage health at later time points.
