Reconstruction of Chronic Proximal Hamstring Tear: Description of a Surgical Technique.
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 6 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
While proximal hamstring tears at the myotendinous junction are common sports-related injuries that are often successfully treated nonoperatively, complete avulsions from the origin on the ischial tuberosity are less common and better treated with surgical repair to prevent significant functional limitations and ongoing weakness. The diagnosis can be easily missed, leading patients to present several months after the initial injury. In addition, some patients decide on nonoperative management initially but later present requesting surgical intervention. The delayed cases are challenging due to often significant tendon retraction, making direct repair difficult if not impossible. Techniques using allograft and autograft reconstruction have been described for this clinical situation. This Technical Note describes the use of 2 Achilles tendon allografts fixed via 5 suture anchors to reconstruct a chronic complete avulsion injury of the proximal hamstring with >5-cm retraction.
