A Spontaneous Bilateral Quadriceps Tendon Rupture in a Patient Undergoing Long-Term Hemodialysis.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Spontaneous quadriceps tendon rupture is very rare. Its occurrence is usually linked to an underlying disease that weakens the tendons causing them to rupture. Here, we report the case of a 44-year-old patient undergoing long-term hemodialysis who had spontaneous bilateral quadriceps tendon rupture. We present the clinical presentation and the management of this injury.
