One-Stage Osteochondral Fracture Repair Technique With Knotless Anchors and Interconnected Crossing Suture Sliding Loops for the Knee.
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 5 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
Osteochondral fractures of the knee represent a challenging entity to manage since there are many different surgical techniques for cartilage repair or other salvage procedures. In terms of cartilage repair, several hardware devices can be used, and many of them could imply a second-stage surgery for hardware removal. The purpose of this article is to describe in detail a one-stage osteochondral fracture repair technique with knotless anchors and interconnected crossing suture sliding loops for the knee. This technique is a one-stage open or arthroscopic procedure with an unlimited number of loops configurations with no particular need for a second surgery for hardware removal, no knot damage, and without the use of bone tunnels. It can be used in different cartilage anatomic locations, such as femoral condyles, trochlea, patella, or other joints.
