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

Compartment syndrome is a rare complication after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. This is one of the most devastating complications after surgery of the lower limb, with certain risks of renal failure, shock, and even death. We report a case of compartment syndrome that occurred 12 h after ACL reconstruction. A healthy 67-year-old male who underwent transtibial ACL reconstruction using autogenous hamstring tendon graft complained of progressive intense pain, paresthesia, and paresis. He had a pallid aspect and taut, shiny skin with several blisters around the medial aspect of the lower limb. Computed tomography revealed a hematoma that originated from the tibial bone tunnel. The patient was immediately referred for an urgent decompression fasciotomy. Hematoma debridement, medial fasciotomy, and negative-pressure wound therapy were performed. The patient recovered well and received routine postoperative physiotherapy.
