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

The patellofemoral joint is a complex joint requiring contributions from both bone and soft tissue for its stability. Pathology of the patellofemoral joint manifests as instability or anterior knee pain. Careful clinical and imaging assessment is important for managing these patients with cross-sectional imaging being a vital component in pre-surgical planning. Operative treatment can involve soft tissue procedures, bony procedures or both. The purpose of part 2 of this two-part article is to review the post-operative imaging findings of the knee extensor mechanism. In doing so, we will provide an overview of some of the bony and soft tissue procedures performed with details of their indications and possible complications. An appreciation of the post-operative surgical appearances will ensure a more comprehensive report and can prevent misinterpretation by the radiologist.
