Single-Stage Arthroscopic Autologous Matrix-Enhanced Chondral Transplantation (AMECT) in the Hip.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Chondral defects of the acetabulum in patients with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome are an increasingly recognized cause of worse outcomes after treatment. Multiple procedures have been described for the treatment of hip cartilage lesions including microfracture, autologous chondrocyte implantation, matrix-induced autologous chondrocyte implantation, and autograft and allograft transplantation. However, many of these techniques have poor long-term outcomes, require multiple surgical procedures, or rely on planned preoperative identification of the chondral lesion. This Technical Note describes our technique of autologous matrix-enhanced chondral transplantation, a single-stage treatment for acetabular cartilage lesions that harvests chondral tissue from the femoral cam deformity and combines it with chondral extracellular matrix, growth factors, and autologous peripheral blood.
