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
Joint coordination variability during walking that is associated with patellofemoral joint cartilage degeneration after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction are not well understood. The purpose of this study was to assess between-limb differences in joint coordination variability and to determine the relationship of coordination variability with postoperative patellofemoral joint cartilage composition. Thirty-five patients underwent bilateral gait analysis and a magnetic resonance exam of the reconstructed knee joint at 6 months post anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Vector coding was used to assess coordination variability during the early (1%-33%), mid (34%-66%), and late (67%-100%) stance phase. The T1ρ/T2 mapping was used to evaluate the glycosaminoglycan-collagen matrix of the patellar and femoral trochlear cartilage. Compared with the uninjured limb, the reconstructed limb exhibited higher hip sagittal/knee sagittal plane coordination variability during midstance as well as higher knee sagittal/ankle sagittal plane coordination variability during both mid and late stance. The hip sagittal/knee sagittal plane coordination variability during midstance predicted 14.6% of the variance in patellar cartilage T1ρ values within the reconstructed limb. In addition, sex of participants was able to predict 32.4% and 13.7% of the variance in femoral trochlea T1ρ and T2 values, respectively. The study results demonstrate that a multijoint mechanism may be associated with early patellofemoral joint cartilage degeneration at 6 months after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.
