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 anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, the remnant ACL is often debrided in an effort to improve visualization of patient anatomy and reduce surgical difficulty. However, retention of the tibial remnant of a torn ACL theoretically portends several advantages. These include preservation of knee proprioception and mechanoreceptors, an enhanced biological environment for healing, and accelerated revascularization and ligamentization of the graft. Despite these advantages, it is not a widely adopted practice and the optimal technique is still subject to debate. The purpose of this technical note is to describe our preferred technique for performing hybrid ACL reconstruction with remnant incorporation.
