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

purposeTo evaluate femoral and acetabular morphology in patients who underwent anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR).

methodsA retrospective review of a prospectively collected ACL registry was performed to identify patients with pelvis radiographs before undergoing either primary or revision ACLR between January 2010 and August 2020. Alpha angle (AA), head-neck offset ratio (HNOR), lateral center edge angle (LCEA), and crossover sign (COS) were measured on the operative side. Values were compared to a negative control group that did not significantly differ in age, sex, or body mass index. Univariate analysis and Pearson's correlation coefficient were used to compare groups with significance defined as

resultsIn total, 114 patients were included (ACL, n = 38; control, n = 76). Eleven primary and 27 revision ACL reconstructions were identified. The mean AA in patients undergoing primary ACL reconstruction was higher than control (67.45° ± 11.30° vs 51.5° ± 10.8°,

conclusionAn association exists between radiographic cam morphology of the hip and patients who previously underwent ACLR. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III, retrospective comparison study.
