Lateral Meniscal Allograft Transplant: Dovetail Bone Bridge Preparation.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Meniscal tears are among the most common knee injuries encountered by an orthopaedic surgeon. Once treated with total meniscectomy, meniscal preservation is now the standard of care. Not all meniscal tears are repairable, and meniscal allograft transplantation has become an integral part of the preservation algorithm. This procedure is often recommended in a young active patient with healthy articular cartilage who has undergone a previous subtotal or total meniscectomy. There are many surgical methods for meniscal allograft transplantation, and the bone bridge technique has shown good improvement in outcome scores and good long-term survival. We describe our preferred technique for preparation of the dovetail bone bridge meniscal allograft for lateral meniscal allograft transplantation.
