Novice Surgeon Portal Preference to Visualize the Femoral Anterior Cruciate Ligament Footprint: The Accessory Medial Portal Offers Improved Visualization.
Article in Arthroscopy, sports medicine, and rehabilitation, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeTo evaluate participant opinions on the appropriateness of different viewing angles by asking 8 questions, using visual content techniques.
methodsSurvey information from participants was used in this study. We used images of a patient who was operated on for symptomatic knee instability. Participants were asked whether the visual angle could determine the femoral tunnel entry point or evaluate anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) integrity.
resultsQuestionnaires were completed by 40 participants. When all responses were evaluated, participant opinions on the accessory medial portal (AMP) were more positive than opinions on images taken from the anterolateral portal (ALP). These observations were statistically significant (
conclusionsAMP use may be a valuable tool for assistant and postgraduate education, as it offers a more suitable view angle for ACL reconstruction. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level V, survey study.
