In-Office Diagnostic Needle Arthroscopy Using the NanoScope™ Arthroscopy System.
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 13 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
Diagnostic needle arthroscopy performed in office is a safe and cost-effective method for accurate evaluation of intra-articular pathology, improving clinical decision making. This minimally invasive approach is an effective alternative to traditional diagnostic techniques of diagnostic surgical arthroscopy and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Needle arthroscopy is considered low-risk, with an extremely low complication rate when performed with appropriate technique and indications. The purpose of this article is to describe an approach to an in-office diagnostic procedure using a needle arthroscopy system.
