Current trends in the anterior cruciate ligament part 1: biology and biomechanics.
Review in Knee surgery, sports traumatology, arthroscopy : official journal of the ESSKA, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 25 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
A trend within the orthopedic community is rejection of the belief that "one size fits all." Freddie Fu, among others, strived to individualize the treatment of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries based on the patient's anatomy. Further, during the last two decades, greater emphasis has been placed on improving the outcomes of ACL reconstruction (ACL-R). Accordingly, anatomic tunnel placement is paramount in preventing graft impingement and restoring knee kinematics. Additionally, identification and management of concomitant knee injuries help to re-establish knee kinematics and prevent lower outcomes and registry studies continue to determine which graft yields the best outcomes. The utilization of registry studies has provided several large-scale epidemiologic studies that have bolstered outcomes data, such as avoiding allografts in pediatric populations and incorporating extra-articular stabilizing procedures in younger athletes to prevent re-rupture. In describing the anatomic and biomechanical understanding of the ACL and the resulting improvements in terms of surgical reconstruction, the purpose of this article is to illustrate how basic science advancements have directly led to improvements in clinical outcomes for ACL-injured patients.Level of evidenceV.
