Carbon Dioxide Insufflation of the Knee in the Treatment of Full-Thickness Chondral Defects With Micronized Human Articular Cartilage.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2018. 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
BioCartilage (BC) is dehydrated, minced human hyaline articular cartilage that was developed as an adjunct to microfracture surgery to help stimulate the bone marrow and stem cells to form hyaline-like tissue in full-thickness chondral defects. The minced pieces of BC require a dry environment for application and can easily be disrupted by residual moisture of saline solution in the surrounding tissues. We present a technique of carbon dioxide insufflation during knee arthroscopy as a means of maintaining a dry environment for preparation of the bony bed during BC augmentation of microfracture surgery. This technique is safe and provides more than adequate visualization, as well as a dry environment, to make the arthroscopic application of BC significantly more efficient.
