The 50 Top-Cited Articles on the Posterior Cruciate Ligament: A Bibliometric Analysis and Review.
Article in Orthopaedic journal of sports medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
backgroundLimited attention has been paid to the natural history, management, and treatment outcomes related to the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL)-deficient knee joint. PURPOSE: To perform a comprehensive bibliometric analysis to evaluate the 50 top-cited articles in PCL research. STUDY
designCross-sectional study.
methodsWe performed a keyword-based search in the Thomson Reuters Web of Science to generate a list of the 50 most cited articles relevant to the PCL. The included articles were analyzed according to journal, country of origin, publication year, total number of citations, citations per year, citation trends, and type of study (clinical vs basic science).
resultsThe 50 top-cited articles were published between 1975 and 2012, and the number of individual article citations ranged between 98 and 410. The listed articles were published in 7 journals, with the
conclusionThe current analysis suggests that PCL research is still evolving and needs high-quality prospective evidence to establish sound recommendations.
