Arthroscopic Debridement, Facetectomy, and Synovectomy for Isolated Patellofemoral Osteoarthritis.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Isolated patellofemoral osteoarthritis (PFOA) is a condition that affects climbing, squatting, and standing up movements in daily life and sports. Various surgical methods have been developed to address the various causes, different degrees of cartilage degeneration, and combined lesions. We describe an arthroscopic patellofemoral arthroplasty technique, with the main purpose to decrease the pain originating from the patellofemoral joint and related structures. The critical points of this technique are patellofemoral denervation and partial patellar facetectomy. Our clinical experience indicates that this technique is effective to address all kinds of PFOA. We consider that the introduction of this technique will provide a feasible choice when surgical treatment of PFOA is indicated.
