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

In the past few years, autologous chondrocyte implantation has been shown to be the most suitable cartilage reconstructive technique with the best tissue quality. Although this method is part of the standard surgical repertoire in the knee joint, it has so far not been an established method in the ankle because there are no prospective randomized controlled studies to prove a significant advantage over alternative methods of cartilage repair. The methods most frequently used in this context (e.g., marrow stimulation techniques) can, however, at most generate hyaline-like and thus biomechanically inferior regenerates. Minced cartilage implantation, on the other hand, is a relatively simple and cost-effective 1-step procedure with promising biological potential and-at least in the knee joint-satisfactory clinical results. We present an arthroscopic surgical technique by which the surgeon can apply autologous chondrocytes in a 1-step procedure (AutoCart; Arthrex, Munich, Germany) to treat articular cartilage defects in the ankle joint.
