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

backgroundSimultaneous bilateral quadriceps tendon rupture is rare, particularly in young individuals with no prior medical history. We present the case of a young man who presented with bilateral quadriceps tendon rupture. CASE PRESENTATION: A 27-year-old Japanese man missed a step while descending a flight of stairs, stumbled, and became aware of severe pain in both knees. He had no past medical history, but was severely obese, with a body mass index of 43.7 kg/m

conclusionsWe experienced simultaneous bilateral quadriceps tendon rupture in a 27-year-old man with no past medical history other than obesity. Suture anchor repair was performed for both quadriceps tendon ruptures and achieved a favorable postoperative outcome.
