One-Stage ACL Revision Using a Bone Allograft Plug for a Semianatomic Tibial Tunnel That Is Too Anterior.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Revision of an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction can be performed as a one-stage or two-stage surgery. Several factors must be taken into consideration when making this choice, especially the size and position of the existing tunnels. When the tibial tunnel is semianatomic, it is difficult to make a new tunnel in the correct position without overlapping the existing tunnel. For this reason, we have developed a one-stage ACL revision surgery that uses a bone allograft plug. When it comes to choosing a reconstruction technique, we believe that combined intra-articular and extra-articular reconstruction with the iliotibial band is suitable when the hamstring tendons are not available, combined with clinical findings of translational and rotational instability. Because the existing tunnels require reorientation, a new femoral tunnel can be created by outside-in drilling to eliminate the risk of overlap, while an allograft bone plug can be used to fill the overly anterior tibial tunnel and allow us to drill the correct tibial tunnel right away. In our hands, this is a safe and effective technique, but longer follow-up is needed to validate its indications.
