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

purposeTo elucidate the relationship between graft tunnel position and knee laxity in the cases of double-bundle ACL reconstruction.

methodsTotal of 132 cases were included. Femoral and tibial tunnels were evaluated by quadrant method on 3D-CT. As additional reference of tibia, the distances from medial tibial spine to the tunnel center (D

resultsOverall, 21 subjects (15.9%) showed AKL, and 15 subjects (11.4%) showed RKL. Those with postoperative laxity showed higher %D

conclusionThere was the risk of residual knee laxity in ACL-reconstructed knee when tibial tunnel shifted more laterally or higher femoral tunnel was created with regard to posterolateral bundle. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III.
