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

Simultaneous rupture of quadriceps and contra-lateral patellar tendons represents an extremely rare injury in healthy individuals. Several systemic diseases predispose patients to this type of condition such as chronic renal failure, rheumatologic disease and hyperparathyroidism. However, there are very few cases in the English literature where a healthy individual presents with this condition. The pathophysiology of this disease is not well known despite numerous hypotheses. Sutures with or without anchors of the quadriceps and patellar tendons seems to lead to satisfactory outcome with knee flexion greater than 100°.
