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

backgroundThere is insufficient knowledge regarding the influence of concomitant injuries on the recovery of short-term subjective knee function after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. PURPOSE: To determine whether patient characteristics, concomitant injuries, and graft choice during ACL reconstruction can predict which patients achieve acceptable knee function 1 year after reconstruction. STUDY

designCase-control study; Level of evidence, 3.

methodsData from 1 physical therapist-specific and 1 surgeon-specific register were used. Patients who had completed the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) at 1-year follow-up were included. Additional intraoperative information was extracted from a database. The primary outcome was achieving a patient-acceptable symptom state (PASS) for each subscale of the KOOS. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression models were used, with patient sex, age, and preinjury level of physical activity as covariates.

resultsA total of 343 patients (51% females) were included. The proportion of patients achieving PASS 1 year after ACL reconstruction varied between 40% and 85% among the KOOS subscales. Younger age at reconstruction and male sex provided favorable odds of achieving acceptable knee function across the KOOS subscales. Patients without cartilage injury had increased odds of achieving PASS in the KOOS sport and recreation subscale; the increase was 1.63-fold (95% CI, 1.01-2.64;

conclusionMore than half of the patients reported an acceptable symptom state on 4 of the 5 KOOS subscales 1 year after ACL reconstruction. A lack of consistency was noted related to the effect of concomitant knee injuries and graft choice on acceptable knee function. However, younger age and male sex were favorable, nonmodifiable characteristics that increased the odds of early acceptable function.
