Arthroscopic Repair of Proximal Posterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries in Pediatric Patients.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
A renewed interest in arthroscopic knee ligament repair is emerging as a result of diagnostic and technical improvements. In pediatric patients with posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) injury, surgical reconstruction is rarely considered as an option because of the risk of iatrogenic physeal injury. In this Technical Note, we describe an arthroscopic surgical repair technique of PCL proximal avulsions in pediatric patients. The main reasons to consider arthroscopic PCL repair in this population include minimal surgical morbidity, preservation of the complex biomechanical properties of the native ligament, the small diameter of the bone tunnels, the physeal respecting nature of the procedure, the absence of graft harvesting, and the absence of fixation devices. The indications for this technique are limited to patients with an acute proximal PCL avulsion. Investigation performed from at Centre Orthopédique Santy, FIFA Medical Center of Excellence, Lyon, France.
