Meniscus Allograft Transplantation Augmented With Autologous Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Meniscus allograft transplantation (MAT) has been shown to be a feasible surgical option for younger patients, below 50 years of age who have meniscal insufficiency and have failed conservative treatment measures. In this technical note, we describe a procedure of harvesting and injecting bone marrow aspirate concentrate in a meniscus allograft during a MAT procedure, which may allow for longer lasting transplants and improve patient outcomes. In this technical note, bone marrow aspirate concentrate is harvested arthroscopically from the intercondylar notch at the surgical site, which prevents additional donor site morbidity, as seen with harvesting from other locations, such as the iliac crest. This also reduces operating time, since harvesting from the iliac crest requires different patient positioning and usually additional anesthesia. The authors of this surgical technique believe that biological augmentation during MATs will assist surgeons in maximizing graft survivorship and, ultimately, lead to better patient outcomes.
