Anatomical Double-Bundle Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction With Autologous Semitendinosus, a Single Patellar Tunnel Technique.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Patellofemoral instability is one of the knee problems that can be found in up to 3% of knee injuries, especially in younger aged females. Recent biomechanical studies showed that the main soft tissue stabilizer for patellofemoral stability is the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL). More than 200 articles on MPFL reconstruction have been published. Some surgical techniques create multiple holes in the patellar area that may increase the risk of patellar fractures. This technique that we present here attempts to reduce the chance of patella-related complications, while maintaining stability of the reconstructed construct, reducing the use of a lengthy tendon graft within the patella and covering the footprint at the border of the patella closed to the native anatomy of the MPFL.
