Loop and knot security of a novel arthroscopic sliding-locking knot using high-strength sutures.
Article in Journal of orthopaedics, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 3 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
objectiveWe evaluated the loop and knot security of a novel arthroscopic knot, the Wiese knot, using different types of sutures.
methodsThe Wiese knot was tied using four different brands of braided sutures (Ethibond, Orthocord, FiberWire, and UltraBraid) with and without a series of three reversing half-hitches (RHAPs) and tested for loop and knot security.
resultsOrthocord provided the greatest amount of loop security. FiberWire delivered the highest knot security. UltraBraid had the greatest ultimate force. Three half-hitches increased the maximal load to clinical failure.
conclusionThe biomechanical characteristics of the Wiese knot are affected by suture material qualities.
