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

There is renewed interest in performing arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) repairs in appropriate patients who have Sherman type 1 ACL tears. However, ACL repairs are associated with unacceptably high failure rates, which may be partly improved with suture augmentation. Our technique uses a hamstring autograft tendon to reconstruct a bundle through a femoral tunnel while inserting the native ACL tissue into the other bundle's femoral footprint. The tear pattern dictates whether the native ACL tissue is inserted into the anteromedial or posterolateral lateral femoral origin. The improved cellular and biomechanical milieu for healing of both the repair and reconstruction may translate to earlier return to sport and reduced failure rates. In addition, by restoring the entire femoral footprint with a single femoral tunnel, improved rotational control is achieved without the bone stock loss observed in traditional ACL double-bundle reconstruction.
