One-Step Autologous Minced Cartilage Procedure for the Treatment of Knee Joint Chondral and Osteochondral Lesions: A Series of 27 Patients With 2-Year Follow-up.
Article in Orthopaedic journal of sports medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 2 registered trials, which are not on this map. Cited by 56 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.

Abstract
backgroundChondral and osteochondral lesions are being detected with increasing frequency. For large-diameter lesions, cell-based treatment modalities are speculated to result in the best possible outcome. PURPOSE: To prospectively evaluate the 2-year clinical and radiological results after the treatment of chondral and osteochondral knee joint lesions by a single-step autologous minced cartilage procedure. STUDY
designCase series; Level of evidence, 4.
methodsFrom February 2015 to June 2016, a total of 27 consecutive patients suffering from chondral or osteochondral lesions of the knee joint were treated using a single-step autologous minced cartilage procedure. All patients underwent preoperative and postoperative magnetic resonance imaging for the collection of AMADEUS (Area Measurement and Depth and Underlying Structures) and MOCART (magnetic resonance observation of cartilage repair tissue) scores. Clinical analysis was conducted by a numeric analog scale (NAS) for pain and knee function before the intervention and at 12 and 24 months postoperatively.
resultsA total of 12 female and 15 male patients (mean age, 28.7 years) were evaluated for a mean of 28.2 ± 3.8 months. The mean cartilage defect size encountered intraoperatively was 3.1 ± 1.6 cm
conclusionOverall, the findings of this study demonstrated that patients undergoing a single-step autologous minced cartilage procedure had a satisfactory outcome at 2-year follow-up. As a result, the single-step autologous minced cartilage procedure does represent a possible alternative to standard autologous chondrocyte implantation. Longer follow-up and larger cohorts are required to define the benefits of this procedure.
