Incisionless Knee Synovectomy and Biopsy With Needle Arthroscope and Autologous Tissue Collector.
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 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
Knee arthroscopy has evolved greatly from its inception in the 20th century. Arthroscopic synovectomy is performed in the case of infection or significant synovitis. We continue to develop more minimally invasive procedures, and the NanoScope (Arthrex, Naples, FL) has provided a new generation of possibilities. The system does not require the use of a standard incision or portal, and using the GraftNet (Arthrex), we can harvest tissue with a standard shaver for further evaluation. This technique provides an option to perform a synovectomy and biopsy without the use of standard arthroscopy portals through an incisionless approach.
