1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveTo investigate the effectiveness of the reconstruction of posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) with platelet rich plasma (PRP) and 3-strand peroneal longus tendons under arthroscope.

methodsBetween June 2014 and December 2017, 58 patients with PCL rupture were randomly divided into two groups: the trial group (PRP assisted reconstruction of 3-strand peroneal longus tendons) and the control group (4-strand hamstring tendon reconstruction alone), 29 cases in each group. There was no significant difference in gender, age, injury side, Kellgren-Lawrence grade, time from injury to operation, and preoperative American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot score, International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score, Lysholm score between the two groups (

resultsThe operation was completed successfully in both groups, there was no complication in the donor tendon area. All the incisions healed by first intention. All the patients were followed up for more than 1 year. The follow-up time of the trial group was 13-17 months, with an average of 15.0 months; that of the control group was 15-20 months, with an average of 15.4 months. At 3 and 12 months after operation, there was no significant difference in AOFAS ankle-hindfoot score when compared with preoperative score and between the two groups (

conclusionPRP combined with 3-stand peroneal longus tendons can significantly improve the function and stability of knee joint, effectively promote graft remodeling, and promote tendon bone healing, reduce the expansion of bone tunnel. The effectiveness is satisfactory.
