All-Epiphyseal Anterior Cruciate Ligament Repair Using Suture Ring Device in the Skeletally Immature Patient.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears in pediatric patients pose distinct challenges in management, especially in patients with open distal femoral and proximal tibial physes. There are a variety of contemporary reconstruction techniques that attempt to address these challenges. However, with the resurgence of ACL repair in the adult population, it has become apparent that the pediatric patient may also benefit from primary ACL repair rather than reconstruction. ACL repair is a procedure performed to treat ACL tears that avoids the donor-site morbidity seen with ACL reconstruction using autograft. We describe a surgical technique involving FiberRing sutures (Arthrex, Naples, FL) and TightRope-internal brace fixation (Arthrex) for ACL repair with all-epiphyseal fixation in the pediatric patient. The FiberRing is a knotless, tensionable suture device that can be used to stitch the torn ACL and coupled with the TightRope and internal brace to fix the ACL.
