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

This article examines the elements that affect the return to sport (RTS) and the risk and percentages of reinjury following a prior primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). The prevalence of RTS following ACLR ranges from 71% to 83%. Concerning elements affecting RTS, a limb symmetry index score of 90 or more duplicates the likelihood of RTS and triplicates it when the International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score is 95 or more, irrespective of age. Other elements recognized to be preindicative of RTS at 1 year include complete rehabilitation, age ≤25, and higher IKDC scores. The prevalence of reinjury following ACLR ranges from 1.5% to 37.5% (between 9% and 29% in the majority of reports). It has been published that 1 in 5 individuals suffers reinjury to either knee, and that male individuals are more prone to reinjure following ACLR. The highest percentage of ACLR reinjury happens in younger male (<18 years), being substantially higher than in female of the same age. Passing a combination of functional tests with predetermined cut-off points utilized as RTS criteria are related diminished ACLR reinjury percentages.
