[Anterolateral stabilization using the modified Lemaire technique for ACL deficiency].
Review in Operative Orthopadie und Traumatologie, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectiveTreatment of persistent anterolateral knee instability. INDICATIONS: Subjective/objective (rotational) instability of the knee after anatomic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. ACL re-rupture including special demands (e.g., high-performance athletes, hyperlaxity) RELATIVE CONTRAINDICATIONS: Osteoarthritis, additional instability of the knee, which should be treated independently; non-anatomic ACL reconstruction with persisting instability should be treated first with anatomic ACL reconstruction. ABSOLUTE CONTRAINDICATIONS: General contraindications for surgery (e. g. septic arthritis), acute irritation of the affected knee. SURGICAL TECHNIQUE: Supine position. Incision along the proximal lateral femoral epicondyle. Marking of the needed width and length of the iliotibial band (ITB) graft. Passing the ITB graft underneath the lateral collateral ligament. Find and mark the isometric point for fixation next to the lateral femoral epicondyle. Fixation of the ITB graft. Layered wound closure. POSTOPERATIVE MANAGEMENT: Knee brace for at least 6 weeks. Range of motion (RoM): from postoperative day 1: flexion-extension 90-0-0°; first 2 weeks after surgery: partial weight bearing (20 kg).
resultsAn anterolateral extra-articular reconstruction may reduce a persistent anterolateral rotatory instability as well as the re-rupture rate following ACL reconstruction with good patient-reported short-term outcomes. Based on current (biomechanical) data, anterolateral tenodesis seems to be superior to a reconstruction of the anterolateral ligament. If a tenodesis is performed, the graft should be fixed in an isometric position, with neutral rotation of the knee and low graft tension to avoid extraphysiologic load within the lateral compartment. Indications for such a procedure may include a high-grade pivot shift or revision ACL reconstruction as well as a persistent anterolateral rotatory instability following anatomic ACL reconstruction.
