The Push-Through Sign-Making the Decision for Selective-Bundle Anterior Cruciate Ligament Surgery.

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
Partial anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears are often difficult to diagnose and treat. Recent interest in the literature has focused on performing selective-bundle ACL reconstruction in patients with symptomatic partial ACL tears when one of the ACL bundles is intact. However, the clinical examination, magnetic resonance imaging, and arthroscopic evaluation of partial ACL tears may not correlate, and proper assessment of the integrity of the intact portion of the ACL continues to be a challenge. If a selective-bundle ACL reconstruction is performed in a patient with an apparently intact but structurally damaged individual bundle, the outcome would be compromised by leaving the damaged bundle in place. This technical note provides a description of a simple and reliable arthroscopic method to aid in the diagnosis of a partial ACL tear. The use of this method to assess remaining ligamentous tissue will assist surgeons in deciding for or against selective-bundle ACL reconstruction.
